Lovers’ Rock

SuileanDubhLooking for a line on Valentine’s Day? Look no further! Here’s another love song  “haund-knitted” in Uist, with the romantic lyrics written and sung by James Macletchie.

Bi Beò (nach maireann) were early contributors to Island Voices, so might now be considered “Golden Oldies”, but their rock’n’roll’n’reggae style was “eclectic”, to say the least. Here, resurrected from their “Ma Sgaoil” collection, the Caribbean-influenced “Sùilean Dubh nan Eilean” is rendered as a Clilstore unit, allowing listeners to read as they listen, checking any words they don’t know as they go along. Happy Valentine’s Day! Keep it educational…
