Still here and still tapping away. The only downside is in bed tonight the auld legs pay for my enjoyment, but after a couple of days,🤪😍 I'm at it again. Such is the price for listening to guid all time dance music.

Yes, a nice album. I m a box player, and loved his sound. For me his first recording was his best, in 1969 called I Love Scotland.

Lovely listening to this music. I was in the Scottish band scene and cannot stop drumming such is the force it has on you. This is music to enjoy as you grow older. I dislike weddings now. The jungle music is not for this auld Tuechter.

Superb. Rock solid tempo. I'm told that Rob provided his band members with music but played entirely from memory himself - and that takes some doing for a Country Dance programme. He was a master at playing for sequence dancing as well. Very much in the Shand mould.

Wonderful music and playing. Rob Gordon was one of the great players of his time and still is to me. I still use some of his recordings with my Scottish Country Dance group here in Canada, with fond memories of dancing in Scotland. I am enjoying this so much, thank you for posting.

Hello Liz - good to hear that this is still going strong in Canada. I think this dates from '88 so second box would be Ian Cruickshanks, who is still going strong in Scotland. I,m now 72 and a box player. The greatest influence in my youth was Rob Gordon, and as I,ve commented earlier, his first recording when he was 29, is a beauty. Keep dancing. Frank in Bristol.

Rob Gordon was the right hand of Jimmy Shand! Has left us far too early.For a time Rob and Jimmy had the same fiddler in their bands.Syd Chalmers.An eminence himself in the scene.

Syd was a fabulous player, on Shands old 78s the violin sound was truly beautiful.

Tremendous band. Per Tommy Pringle from Selkirk, who stood in on 2nd box occasionally, he provided very tidy copies for all the band members but played entirely from memory himself. For a Country Dance he would have the programme in front of him (about 22 dances) but whether he needed a list of his tune titles for the set and the encore I don't know - but still a staggering achievement to play all that without the dots in front of you. He was well known for his huge repertoire and was also one of the few SDBs who were good at Sequence Dancing as well. A very clean, lively and faultless player. Sadly I never heard him live.

That is not surprising.Rob played many of the same tunes as Shand and in the same succession,Shand did.See my post above.There've been relationships between the 2 bands.
