Kenneth McKellar is something of a paradox, using his operatic tenor voice to sing traditional folk songs although (as his version of Stranger in Paradise shows - this is a duet with an un-credited female singer, possibly Moira Anderson) he was well capable of handling contemporary material.
Another unusual feature of his repertoire is that Kenneth also recorded plenty of English folk songs, represented here by Villikins and his Dinah, Sweet lass of Richmond Hill, Dance to your Daddy, Greensleeves, Last rose of summer and Rising of the lark.
Kenneth manages to suppress his natural Scottish accent when singing English songs.
