Re Hector MacAndrew recordings: I get the impression he didn't record an awful lot, but I have three LPs which feature him: VARIOUS, THE FIDDLER'S COMPANION HECTOR MACANDREW, SCOTTISH FIDDLE MUSIC SCOTTISH FIDDLERS TO THE FORE
I've got a couple more with odd tracks by him. There must be a CD waiting in the wings...?
That would be fantastic! Hardie Press used to distribute a cassette of his - the "Scottish Fiddle Music". It went out of print a few years ago because the man who had made it available to Hardie died and his heirs didn't want to deal with it. With the new book and Paul Anderson's CD of Hector's music, I would think now would be a great time for a reissue on CD of his recordings. I really like the book, particularly the minor key tunes. There are some terrific tunes in that book!
If any of you folks in Scotland hear about a reissue of Hector's recordings, please let us all know.
