Bill's Music

Bill is an original and has written some of the funniest songs to have come out of Scotland. Backed with sharp incisive and hilarious comment, Bill was one of the country's most sought after performers on the Scottish scene.

An Ideal Souvenir

Songs like The Portree Kid, The Scottish Holiday and The Sunday Driver became standard items in the repertoire of The Corries and other songs found their way into the acts of many artistes performing on the folk scene; Bill Barclay, Hamish Imlach and Alastair Macdonald, to name a few.

In the 70s and 80s, Bill presented and wrote humourous songs for Radio Forth and some of these found their way into publications such as Punch, one was included in Jocky Wilson's Own Story and one was performed on the Beechgrove Garden. He has appeared on many TV and radio programmes and has made four albums

One such album, Bill Hill's Police Record has been recently re-released and is available to preview and purchase on iTunes or contact Bill for your copy.

After years of non-availability, a genuine classic makes a welcome return. Bill is the master of parody songwriting in the Scots folk tradition and this album neatly brings together his best work. You've probably heard The Corries covering half of this material, but 'til you've heard it from the lips of the master, you ain't heard it!
