Behold, the Old Bear - Solsbury Hill

about

"Solsbury hill is probably one of my favorite songs. I remember loving it even before knowing who was responsible for it. From the back of my dads car in them good old days when I was still small enough to be carried to bed after falling asleep on a long car journey.

I recorded this cover of it a while ago intending to be part of a thing we were doing on the Mitchell Museum website called " Raindeer's Covers Corner" . It was supposed to have a video to accompany it. We went as far as the filming process, which had me running up Garnet Hill just off Sauchiehall Street for roughly an hour and a half. It was very tiring work.

In the end Kris, my then flatmate and MM band buddy wasn't able to get the edit to work, so it was scrapped. So in retaliation I broke his acoustic guitar. True story. At least now it will be heard." Raindeer (Behold, the Old Bear)

Kowalskiy was called a lot of things, including an "esteemed" and "cult" Scottish music blogger "virtuoso". I might have announced my sudden retirement from blogging in early 2013, but I leave you with 30 free EPs featuring more than 150 brilliant Scottish bands to remember me by.

Thanks to everyone who contributed, and everyone who downloaded one of these EPs.

All the best folks,
