Jeannie ROBERTSON (1908-1975) was awarded an M B
E for her service to Scottish music - this recording by Peter Kennedy
in 1953, was made at a time when she first started to remember some of
the older ballads learned from her mother and other tinkers - including
MY SON, DAVID (Child #13), LORD BATEMAN (#53) & ANDREW LAMMIE (#233),
which she recites in the old Perthshire style. She also tells a cumulative
tale, The Old Witch Woman, and recalls dandling songs
