There's a wonderful page on facebook called Inverness when you were a kid. Folk about my own age some younger many older discuss past and present issues, characters, buildings, photos etc... re our town. Many of us are sad the way it's degenerated into just another town / city. It's been taken over by chain stores & supermarkets and basically lost it's character. Couple of nights ago I actually dreamt this tune. Following morning I recorded it on the keyboard so's I wouldn't forget the blasted thing. I'm overwhelmed by the response so far. Over 300 plays. Real tracks included in this recording are piano, bass & drums. I play melody and harmony accordion. Memories of Old Inverness

Thanks Guenter, it's something I enjoy more than playing the tune itself

Hi, Graham !
It is a tender tune you have created ! Reminded me of your beautiful homeland and of Loch Lomond where I once had the pleasure to view the scenery together with my dear late wife Beni. A very beautiful landscape, no wonder it inspires to write such beautiful tunes !:))
I sang Loch Lomond to my wife on the Bonnie Bonnie Banks of the Loch and those fateful words of the song "me and my true love will never meet again on the Bonnie Bonnie Banks Of Loch Lomond" were actually true, and they are thus etched in my memory forever!:))
Beautiful country, beautiful lochs (lake district), lovely tunes !
I just love the Scots !!:))
Cheers Dani

I like this.... I could see this playing as underscore to a french street cafe scene in a film.

Hi Graham.
Very emotive, Took me straight back to the days when I lived on the Isle of Skye and we'd take the bus over to the big city, Inverness. I've not been back to Skye since the bridge was built and I imagine Inverness has changed too during that time.
But in my memory, when I listen to your beautiful melody, it's just the same as it always was. Thanks.
ROG.

Graham,
I always like it when you post a song to the forum. The accordion can be such an intimate instrument, and you play it so well. This song has a very expressive feel to it. Very well done!

Wow, that's a film theme if I've ever heard one. I get all kinds of imagery from listening. Incredibly evocative!!!

Thanks folks, somebody has asked if they could put words to it. More than happy to allow that. Somebody else has asked to record it on their latest cd, also delighted about that.
