Biografía:
Old Blind Dogs is a musical group which plays Celtic folk and traditional Scottish folk music, with influences from rock, reggae and Middle Eastern music rhythms. The three founding members of the band (Ian F. Benzie, Buzzby McMillan and Jonny Hardie) first met during a so-called "buskers' holiday" in the Scottish Highlands in 1990, and after playing together for the summer decided to call themselves "Old Blind Dogs". Dave Francis and Carmen Higgins joined the band soon afterwards

Far up intae the stormy north lies Urquhart's fairy glen

Wi' lumps o' cake and tattie scones and cheese and braxie ham
C F C
Nae thinking where I'm comin' frae or where I'm goin' tae gang
[Verse]
F
I'm happy in the summer time beneath the bricht blue sky
C F Am
Nae thinkin' in the morning', at nicht where I'm to lie

Barns or byres or anywhere, or oot among the hay
C F C
And if the weather does permit, I'm happy every day

I've done my share of humpin' wi' the dockers on the Clyde

And wi' mony Angus farmer's rig, I've ploughed the bonny earth

Loch Katrine and Loch Lomond have a' been kent by me
C F Am
The Dee, the Don, the Deveron that rushes tae the sea
