From an interview on BBC Radio Scotland's Pipeline in 1994. George talks about composing and his tune "The Hills of Argyll" followed by a set of 4/4 Marches from Ian McKerral.
Hi Michelle - Yes, theres another 20 mins or so on the programme. I was probably a bit naughty to upload as much as I did, but I'll find a way to get the rest to you if you email me! :)
@@michelleelle4622 that’s the one, lovely to hear him say some of the words to his tune. Unfortunately I think the complete words to the tune are lost…. Unless you know different.
As an x 8 th Argyll I find this tune very moving
Who's that doing the interviewing? Fantastic conversation.. Fascinating
Iain McInness - the legend that is! :)
Any other interviews that you are aware of? I’m a descendant of his. Thank you for uploading

Lorne MacDougall I emailed you. Thank you 😊
@@LorneMacDougall I decided to ask again as I have not received. Now I can’t find your email address
George mentions that he wrote lyrics to the Hills of Argyll. Does anyone know where I can find them?
Hi David, afraid not. I've been after them for years also.
From the hills of Argyll
I’m with you all the while
Dreaming and scheming
And when I pray I close my eyes and say
When shall I see Scotland again…

@@MAMDAVEM no, that’s all I was able to find
Was it Scheming or Screaming? I've listened several times and sounds like screaming@@michelleelle4622
