about

It was never our forte, the instrumentals, but I think we made a fair fist of them. It was always up to Hamish, pre1982, to provide the flashy stuff, and Nick, since then, fulfilled that requirement. I've listed the instruments below but basically Derek and I provided competent guitars, mandolin, and a wee belt on bodhran, leaving the rest to Nick.
