Robin Hall And Jimmy McGregor – The Artist/s

Robin Hall (1936 – 1998) was a Scottish folksinger, best known as half of a singing duo with Jimmie Macgregor. Hall was a direct descendant of the famous Scottish folk hero and outlaw Rob Roy MacGregor as well as of the explorer Mungo Park
He formed a musical partnership with Jimmie Macgregor in 1960, and they appeared extensively on BBC Television – on the Tonight programme,[4] on the White Heather Club,[1] and as the hosts of the seminal London Folk Song Cellar. During this period Hall’s wearing of a CND badge on television caused some controversy.

Jimmie Macgregor MBE (born 1930) is a Scottish folksinger and broadcaster, best known as half of a singing duo with Robin Hall.

Hall and Macgregor recorded over 20 albums during their partnership, which ended in 1981. One of their most successful singles was the anthem “Football Crazy”, released in 1960 on Decca Records.

 

Football Crazy – The Song

‘Football Crazy‘ Is a song originally written by James Curran, originally titled as “The Dooley Fitba’ Club”, in the 1880s. The song is the earliest-known song that references association football, and it later became a minor hit in the 1960s for Scottish folk music duo Robin Hall and Jimmie Macgregor. Despite the songs exposure on BBC televisions Tonight programme it failed to chart.

The Football Shirt – The Shape

This record is modelled into the silhouette of a short sleeved football shirt which is part of the footballers kit. In association football, kit (also referred to as a strip or uniform) is the standard equipment and attire worn by players. The sport’s rules specify the minimum kit which a player must use, and also prohibit the use of anything that is dangerous to either the player or another participant. Individual competitions may stipulate further restrictions, such as regulating the size of logos displayed on shirts and stating that, in the event of a match between teams with identical or similar colours, the away team must change to different coloured attire.
