R. I. P. Brian Kellock, much loved piano colossus, leader of BK3 and accompanist of choice for the stars. The great jam session in the hereafter has just acquired a genuine, big-hearted ambassador for swing.

This repugnant individual is a creature of the English media. They have platformed and promoted him for years and will do so with renewed vigour now that he is heading for Downing Street. Now’s the day and now’s the hour, Scotland, to get out before fascism takes control.

Huge privilege to read “The Lazy Mist” written by Robert Burns in 1788 @ccfest to a beautiful accompaniment from @DuncanWChisholm and @ShawDonald at the Kelvingrove Burns Night. An amazing experience to hear such fantastic musicians celebrating the work of our National Bard.

If there is something you can do for a greater cause……one that is far bigger than yourself. Find it and then do it RIP Alex Salmond 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️ #IndependenceIsNormal
Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson@ORGrimsson

Alex Salmond died earlier today; a rare visionary and campaigner who brought the independence of #Scotland to the forefront of British politics. Our conversations were always inspiring and profoundly interesting; his fascination with the model of #Iceland a constant theme.
