Bandalised

Vin is a singer-songwriter and mean tin whistler from the north east of England who’s been around for a long time now, and still going strong. Most of his albums contain hard hitting songs with the odd whistle tune thrown in, but Bandalised is a balance of songs and tunes played with a band, hence the title.

Some great session tunes here, a number written by Vin. Fun to play along with, you could almost be there!

Vin Garbutt was one of the major talents that kept the English folk club scene going through the ’70’s and presumably after, is a great singer and singer/songwriter and a really good whistle-player with it. I haven’t heard this album but simply assume it would be good. He’s made several, though I don’t know if they’re all still available.
