A beautiful rendition!!!! Most don't know the origin of this!!... The Shetland Islands were loosing so many people, due to death or moving away.... So it was noticed that there were fewer and fewer 'lights' there.... The title refers to the 'Lights' that have now extinguished there for ever...
2nd comment about this!!.... I've heard & played many versions of this on the Guitar... And I think it is right that this should be played at this Tempo!!!! It is not a 'lively' tune!!! It's about the negative impact of people leaving a region, and the ensuing 'demise'.... Not to mention the 'Rarity' of having it played by a 'Guitar'... I thank the performers xoxox
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Maggie and hearing her play. She's extraordinarily talented, yet incredibly modest about ir.
