Origin: Scottish Borders, United Kingdom - Toronto, Ontario, 🇨🇦
This uptempo, folksy song extolls the virtues of both curling and its participants. It features the accordion as a lead instrument. Accompanied by Angus MacKinnon and his Scots-Canadians, Andrew (Auld Sandy) Murdison's Scottish-broughed voice sing such schmaltzy lines like this:
It's the grand old game of curling
On a curling rink that's keen
Our forefathers player it
And they played it good and clean.
It's there you meet the best of men
With friendship as their aim
So here's a help to everyone
Who plays the curling game.
"The Curler's Song" was a seven-inch single backed by "The Curler's Alibi." As mentioned in the Feb. 27, 1965 edition of Billboard magazine, Murdison's release was the first time Ace Records offered a vinyl disc and its corresponding sheet music together in a deluxe package for $1.50.
Written, composed, and performed by Andrew Murdison
