Willie Beaton, RIP
Just heard the sad news that Willie Beaton passed away this morning. Not unexpected but no less sad.
It made me wonder how much there is recorded by someone who was a dearly loved singer and musician, but spent a lifetime outside the commercial music business. His closest brush with commercial success was in Hamish Macbeth.
UPDATE: I'm reminded Willie has been recording over the last year.
Here's Willie in action in the Plockton Inn, apparently from about a year ago.
