Summary
Cilla Fisher's repertoire of songs.
Cilla Fisher discusses the repertoire of songs she sings in a duo with her husband [Artie Trezise]. She mainly sang traditional Scottish songs until her husband began accompanying her on guitar, when they began doing more upbeat contemporary material. Their repertoire eventually became so varied that people found it difficult to describe them succinctly, so they moved back to singing mostly Scottish songs. Mention of the various instruments played by her husband on stage. Discussion of where new songs in the repertoire are obtained. Some come from friends, some from books. She consciously omits verses in songs that she finds distasteful, usually because they are sexist.
