And the tree, and the fish, and the bird, and the bell…

I decided to play this Michael Marra song today when I heard that some friends were going to be involved in a new recording of the song to raise funds for those affected by the George Square bin lorry tragedy. There’s more information about this here and the new recording featuring Tom Urie and the Glasgow Philharmonia Orchestra will be available in February. The first time I heard the song was on the Hue and Cry Bitter Suite album. Here’s a video of Hue and Cry performing the song in 1990. I hope you enjoy my version of Mother Glasgow.
