Orkney Musicians 2

One of Orkney's finest piano accordionists - Kenny Ritch.
08 September 2007.

A yes a few years ago by the amount of hair the guitarist John my dad has got!
Must have been before Ken Ross played drums for them as I remember sitting at the front of the stage at harvest homes etc staring at the drums hoping for a shot. I played drums with Kenny and Dad from 1986 to 2000.

This photo is wrong way roond, or Kenny was left handed as a younger man.

Yes, Ally Clouston was one of Kenny's early influences, but Kenny saw the light later
and learned to play the box the right way up. Sorry about that Kenny.
