Notes on music
Paperback (44 pp)
" Welcome to the second volume of tunes Tom Anderson left unpublished at the time of his death in September 1991... His love of fiddle music and his unshakeable belief in the native culture of our islands has assured him a special place in the history and future of Shetland music. He inspired people... all over Shetland and beyond to play and appreciate traditional music". Aly Bain MBE.
