cod liver oil....... you have been a part of my childhood...the child songs stuck in my mind,, but they are not on here, not all of them.....thanks dad for introducing me to this mans music as a child.....
*******A few years ago here on youtube was circulating one live video of Hamish performing ''The Parcel Of Rogues''. It wasn't a concert on a stage, but in a bar or something, or a country club of some sort. Or even mabybe from this place over here in this clip. This performance was so powerful, every word was like a hammer! But that video just disappear into oblivion. Does anybody remember it?
There used to be at least three or four videos of this exact performance in much higher quality but they've disappeared. Really disappointed that I can't find them anywhere. His best version of Cod Liver Oil and Orange Juice is pretty much lost now.
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE NAME OF THIS EVENT OR RECORDING??? It appears the videos are being removed from CZcams (!!!) and I need to know before it is gone forever!
Might be a bit late to the party 3 years later but the event was called 'Keep taking the medicine' and the full concert has now been uploaded to CZcams: czcams.com/video/xQjDg9GaPXU/video.htmlsi=ZagxWx5XAFLrafHr
It was released on a Video a few years back. I bought it for a quid from a supermarket bargain basket. Fabulous stuff. It got nicked when my house got burgled a few years back and i have searched for a replacement in vain ever since. Must be out there somewhere.
+1 It also makes no commercial sense at all to remove this from the public. New generations will never discover Hamish and his great songs/delivery and he will be forgotten :(
Sadly Hamish departed just before a booked local gig (Iain Mackintosh and Hamish's ladies made it into a memorial gig). He's great in this but the audience is scary. No wonder playing folk clubs was a bit daunting and needed a big presence like Hamish!
yep once stufft him in a ford anglia from the pasley folk club to the para handy in greenock.

A great musician & brimming with charisma

I just heard this on the radio, but it was a different version, no crowd involved. This one is the only one I can find? Such a catchy fun tune!
Hamish..........he was a genius

A great wee tune from an alltime great folk performer.
Black is the colour! Why did you take it down? That video is the greatest song of all time! Upload it again please!

Mentor to John Martyn, who ended up looking just like Hamish!
