This week we’re getting the spades out and digging around in the history of arguably the most widely identifiable Scottish song of all - Loch Lomond  (also referred to in some quarters as The Bonnie, Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond ).
Marty and Douglas express some pretty definite opinions on a song which, in its worst guise, can become a tacky, clichéd representation of Scotland, but in its best can be a heart-wrenching ballad or a unifying, crowd-pleasing stomper.
 
You can listen to the full song on The Sorries album Auld Lang Syne and can hear more of our songs on the major streaming services or by visiting http://thesorries.co.uk
