THE PRAIRIE HIGGLERS "OVER TWENTY
YEARS"
An album which will be of particular interest to CSTM members
is THE PRAIRIE HIGGLERS
OVER TWENTY YEARS: THE HUGH E. HENDRY MEMORIAL RECORDING,
published
by the Development and Alumni Affairs Office of the University

Hugh Hendry was a director of the Society until his death in 1994.
He was also the leader of
The Prairie Higglers, a non-professional band which played
traditional music in Saskatoon
for twenty years. This album is a compilation of material recorded
between 1975 and 1993, so
the sound is variable, though never unacceptable. It is a treasury
of Scottish, English, Irish and
American songs. Since Hugh was originally from Scotland, the Scots
songs have an authentic
accent. The other continuous member of The Prairie Higglers
was Bill Sarjeant, a former
president of the Society, whose distinctive booming voice supports
the harmony in many of
the songs. The instruments include guitar, harmonica, fiddle,
and whistle.

side is of a different configuration
of the group, with two early configurations on side A. Contents:
