Good morning all, (UK BST)

I wonder if any of you can help with a problem. Does anybody know of any reference to a composer named Will Fyffe. In 1921 he compsed the music and words for a song 'I belong to Glasgow'. I've recorded a copy on the 6K and have sent a JPEG of the score to Luce to see if the 7K can handle it better.

I've tried 6 different search engines to no effect but have come up with zilch. In the meantime if anybody wants to listen to my copy I've got it in both Technics and MP3 format.

Sorry to trouble you all,

Mark

Hi Mark, I managed to get 748 hits on Google
Without wishing to tell you how to 'Suck Eggs', if you type "Will Fyffe" into Google (including the Inverted Commas) you should find more than enough references.....
