We made this for Archie Fisher's memory, his friends and fans. We had some lovely guests sharing their love for the great man too - our pals Anna Massie from @BBCRadioScot Travelling Folk (Archie's old chair) and Amy Davenport. Have a listen!

A very special concert in a very special folk club. Sold out long ago, 29 September reminded why the folk club scene has endured and at its finest is peerless. Do see Nancy Kerr & James Fagan if you can. The final flourish. James is playing a guitar-shaped Stefan Sobell bouzouki.
