Smalltalk
Smalltalk are Iain MacInnes (small pipes), Billy Ross (guitar, vocals) and Stuart Morison (fiddle).
This was a forerunner to their Ossian album on Greentrax, on which they were joined by Billy Jackson.
Although short-lived, Smalltalk produced an excellent sound and built up a good following before they moved on to the Ossian project.
Iain MacInnes produced the piping programme Pipeline on BBC Radio Scotland for many years.
Worth investigating.
“It is rare indeed to hear three such sensitive musicians together…”
