Summary
Maurice Fleming describes Blairgowrie as a prominent place to hear folk-song.
Maurice Fleming tells how Blairgowrie's residents, along with those singers who come for the seasonal berry picking work, provide an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in folk-song to hear some wonderful singing. He quotes Alan Lomax as saying that Blairgowrie during the berry season is one of the leading folk festivals in the British Isles.
