Andy Stewart Sings Harry Lauder
Вставка

- In wishing all my youtube viewers a Happy New Year, what better way to celebrate but to recall the songs of Scotland's legendary entertainer, Sir Harry Lauder - 'I Love A Lassie', 'Roamin' In The Gloamin'', and 'Keep Right On To The End Of The Road'. His original recordings date back to the early years of the 20th Century - but Andy Stewart, who had enjoyed international success in the 1960s with hits such as 'A Scottish Soldier', is captured here performing an affectionate tribute to Sir Harry during a 1984 TV appearance.
How I miss The White Heather Club and Andy Stewart on the New Year's Eve. Bringing in the new year is not the same.
Here he is doing Harry lauder, born in 1870. A great worldwide superstar, a man who lost his only son in 1914 in the great war. Anyone who keeps alive the great victorian musical acts gets my respect♡
A gentleman, I saw him in the early 80’s absolutely brilliant!
My mother was Andy Stewart's cousin. We miss both of them very much
Absolutely perect!!!
Hats off to Harry Lauder!
we love Andy in Vancouver, B.C. I grew up with his music!

Long live Scotland. Andy lived in bonny Arbroath as we did with the Abbey next door.
Brought beautiful memories back too me and gave me a smile I've been lacking for a while thank you for the memories
One great performer paying respect to another great performer. Thank you for posting this excellent video...Mac
How can dear Andy fail not to raise a smile. A true Scots legend.I met him a few times in the 60s.
Stewart, not a Scot. Comes from German English French Germanic tribes.
I couldn't agree more Alex. OBrian. He was definitely a born entertainer. I too was very fortunate to have met him in Australia when he toured in the late70's early 80's. I was so smitten with him😇

The Good Old Days. Blast from the past.
Great times...great singer..I remember well....
what a entertainer.....
My gran used 2 talk about him,she gave me a record of his
Superb
Don't know how true it is, but I was told years ago that Harry Lauder went on stage and sang 'End of the Road' just a couple of days after hearing that his son had been killed in the first World War.
He wrote it for his son.it was a tribute
Very true
Plus he spent most of the rest of his life raising funds for injured soldiers.
He also go right out into the front line trenches to entertain the troops and keep their spirits up.
Sir Harry Lauder was a magnificent man!!
Harry Lauder wrote the song after his son John was killed at the Somme WW1 and yes he sang it on stage in London a couple of days later.
His son was something of a cunt and the belief is he was shot in the back by his own side when they went over the top.
It was not uncommon to settle scores this way in WW1.
For those interested the theatre is His Majesty's Theatre, Aberdeen -
I was born too late there all dead and other people my age listen to the one direction well they can change direction
Cameron Rich same dude
Same
Hey guys, what in the world does "roamin in the gloamin" mean?
Strolling around in the evening twilight. (With the lassie or laddie of your choice, otherwise there's no' much point.)
Olwen S awesome thanks. My kids listen to this song every day before school.
"The gloaming" is a word of Scots origin that became more widely used, meaning twilight but with a definite nostalgic feeling to it. Check UA-cam for "In the Gloaming," one of the most performed and recorded English-language songs of modern times, from the 1870s right through the 1950s anyway. I'm sure good old Harry never recorded that one though...
