Though primarily steeped in the traditions of folk music and Celtic music, Scottish singer/songwriter Dick Gaughan enjoyed a prolonged and far-reaching career in a change of creative pursuits. Born Richard Peter in 1948, he number one picked up the guitar at the age of seven, and issued his debut solo LP No More Forever in 1972. Gaughan so sign on with the folk-rock mathematical group the Boys of the Lough, releasing a 1973 self-titled LP before reversive to his solo life history with 1976's Kist o Gold. However, he shortly returned to the grouping format, forming a band named Five Hand Reel and issue some other eponymously coroneted effort that same year; over the next deuce eld, Gaughan issued quadruplet more records -- deuce solo releases (1977's Fuzz and Brass and 1978's Gaughan) as good as two more than Five Hand Reel outings (1977's For A' That and 1978's Earl o' Moray). In the late 1970s and early 1980s, he worked as a critic and columnist with Folk Review mag, and likewise acted as a member of the 7:84 Theatre Company; afterward a three-year absence from the studio, Gaughan also returned to regular musical obligation with the spill of 1981's Handful of Earth. A Different Kind of Love Song followed in 1983, and in 1985 he released Live in Edinburgh; True and Bold appeared a year later. After 1988's Call It Freedom, Gaughan once again retreated from view; much of his fourth dimension was devoted to his increasing involvement in computer engineering, and he after earned notice for his skills as a programmer and web fashion designer. Finally, he formed a new ring, the fugacious Clan Alba, which disbanded afterward releasing their 1995 self-titled debut; the solo Sweep On arrived the next year, followed in 1998 by Redwood Cathedral.
