Alan Reid has been ever-present in Battlefield Band since 1969. The Batties were pre-eminent in the vanguard of 70s Scots pioneering folk bands with an influence heard in many of today's young ensembles. In a band noted for its composing skills and interpretations of traditional music, Alan's songwriting has been an important component. Alan formed a duo with singer/guitarist Rob van Sante in 2000. They have released two albums, 'Under the Blue' and 'The Rise and Fall o' Charlie'. The show features selections from these and from Alan's long and fruitful Battie career.
