Today in History

1788: The first steamboat experiment was held on Dalswinton Loch. Robert Burns was farming at Ellisland, just outside Dumfries, when he was invited by his landlord, Patrick Miller, to go out in a small experimental steamboat. The boat, which was fitted with an engine designed by William Symington, was the first paddle-propelled steamboat in the world.

Jazz - Freddie King   The Auld Toll Bar
20:30 Monday, April 14 2008

Freddie King

"The hippest singer in town: bebop, ballads, blues, all spun afresh in a net of warmth and pleasure."

Check here for all Freddie's Gigs

KING ON RECORD

He's a class act, as is his daughter Nikki.

Everybody in Edinburgh with an ear for quality vocals has been urging Freddie King to make an album and he's done it at last.

Diggin' Deep is all ballads, all beauties and a credit to the man and the musicians involved, including, on tenor-sax Frank Perowski, a former MD for Liza Minnelli. Nikki comes in with her dad on the closing Over the Rainbow.
