Rev. Robert Paterson - In the year that Playback Magazine moves into its 30th year, we intend having a look back from time to time. This month being the month for Robert Burns birthday on 25th January, we look back at a recording made before Playback started, when for its predecessor, the Glasgow Sound Magazine, we recorded a talk by the Rev. Robert Paterson at the discussion Group in February 1967. This is an extract from that evening.
