I love everything Norman and I have almost all of his recordings. But I have never heard this.

Norman and Nancy are awesome! This track is from the Directions album

I live there and also play that tune on my mandola. Amazing photos.

Thanks Graham

I love the way Blake interprets a Scottish trad tune and then marries it with 2 American tunes......a master at work.

Norman's the man

Been a "fan:" for 40 plus years. To me the finest traditional American Mandolinist/Guitarist.

Loch Lavan Castle as played on the Blake's record is about the only place I've ever heard it, and on mandolin. Should be easy to learn by ear, unless it's in B flat. Ha,ha.
