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...

    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.

    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.

    • @nledaig

      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.

    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.

      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’.
