A Wee Coak Sparrah - Duncan MacRae
Переглядів 140 тис.11 років тому
From 1959 onwards, MacRae's recitation of "The Wee Coak Sparrah" was a core ingredient of Scotland's televised New Year celebrations. Duncan MacRae was born on 20 August 1905 at 118 Kirkland Street, Maryhill, Glasgow. He grew up in a strict Presbyterian background, rooted in the highland traditions of his grandparents, but in his later years religion only figured peripherally. MacRae's striking...

Werner is buried in Dumfries
Sgoinneil!
The yacht was called the Elspeth. Kissling had it on hire I think. During the war he was interned as an enemy alien. He never returned to Germany but he often revisited Erisgeidh post-war. He settled in Scotland and died in a care-home in Dumfries in the early eighties. The music was added later. Most of it was recorded from the singing of the London Ghaidhlig choir which had a strong contingent of exiled Lewis girls like Kitty Macleod.
How wonderful. Such wonderful people must never fade away.
Excellent Historic,
May I agree indeed with the previous caller who suggested the people had lost something precious,well said absolultly.
Mary. Johnston. Washes. The. Fleece. What. A. Noble. Lady....
Bloody hell 😮
Long time no see
Thank you a lovely film.
Angus Cumming, you were a handsome man. :o)
...my Dad used to sing this to me, but he was from Larkhall, so he was much harder to understand... but Mum was from Wishaw, so i understood!... ;)
It seems a much less harsh landscape than that of St.Kilda's and the people seem more like todays people even though they were both filmed in the 1930's. The difference is probably that St.Kilda's is much more isolated with an even windier climate because of it being so far out in the Atlantic. Also, the strict cult religion that the people of St.Kilda's had.
Erisgaidh is not really isolated like Hiort (especially today with its causeway) and it has a very sheltered acairsaid. Hiort didn't have that. The Hiortaich were normal Presbyterians.
…braw!
Love this, finally to see singer
The "affluence of incohol". Genius
Went into a post office to buy a stamp a few years ago... cost 63p..."That's twelve and a tanner!!!" I thought rather indignantly.... (actually 1/2p more but you get my point...)
His wife was a teacher at Millport Primary School in the 60s I think.
This is definitely a hard lifestyle, but rich in community. It seems the more comfortable life becomes, the less we need each other in our communities and the more detached we become. Being comfortable but alone can sure be sad at times.

No protective clothing for sheep dipping, open decks on fishing boat.
Still prefer CCR"s rendition.....they definitely out performed Bo Diddly
My auld granda sang this to me 🏴❤️
Those young lads collecting peat probably ended up enlisting during WW2 :(
Probably in the Merchant Navy but it would be interesting to find out.
The family tree : Father - 94 years old. Son 1 - Donald - 72 years old ( A very steady lad!) Son 2 - Peter - 64 years old (A bit of a nutter!) Son 3 - Alec (Wee Eck) - 50 years old (Ah don't think ah'll ever be able to rear that lad!)
How can he read that newspaper with those wibbly-wobbly specs?
thank you for uploading this!
Glad you like it.
I'll get ye, yer git ye, and if I don't get ye, some other git'll get ye, yer git, ye. If you understand that, you know Ulster Scots I think..
Atrocious spelling there, Channel 3! It should, of course, be written, as follows : Ah'll get ye, yah git ye An if ah don't get ye Some other git'll get ye Yah git ye!
I remember Duncan singing that on Ner'day, I was 11 years old and laughed that much I was literally Sick. I sing that song to my Grandchildren still.
Love Kathleen MacInnes, Liam o maonlaí's angelic voice in the bg is just the cherry on top ♥️
I wonder if it was much the same when Charlie landed nearly 200 years earlier?
Spitting image of Boris Johnson!

I played in the same pipe band as one Alistair MacDonald from Eriskay. What a grand chap....and a terrific story teller as well!

Aw haven't heard this in many years. My Daddy used to sing this to me when I was a baby. Brought tears to my eyes hearing it again.

One word for this MAGNIFICENT !!!
I think the sparrah or the man hit by the arrah thumbed this down. 🤣
The wee coak sparrah was totally unaffected by the incident and therefore unlikely to give a ‘thumbs down’. But the man wae the barrah, that wis hit wae the arrah, and the wee boey, that wis hurt tae the marrah, well I’m quite sure both of them gave a ‘thumbs down’.
I've corrected the link to the Scottish Archive Network, given in the description above, which gives further details of Duncan's life.
