We were resting between shots of a film I was making with The Corries when Roy Williamson asked if I'd like to hear his new song. Needing no answer to his question he launched the words into clear air - the song was Flower of Scotland. The short tune had a fine dirl to it with rising skirls and cadences but also a hint of lamentation and a bray of defiance. It was so authentically rooted in Scots tradition that it could have sprung from no other Folk culture in the World. We filmed Roy singing it there and then. W.Gordon Smith, Edinburgh, August 1990
