"Feel So Near"

"Feel So Near"
Two of my all-time favourite singers feature in the video for my 'Sight and Sound' entry i.e. Dougie MacLean and Kathy Mattea.

Last evening Helen and I went to see Dougie in Concert at The Stables, Wavendon, Milton Keynes. Poor old Dougie was suffering from the flu but it was stiil a magical and emotional night. Dougie always gets the audience to sing along with the choruses. Normally I only sing when the nearest person is a couple of miles away but even I joined in :-)

I well remember taking this Guernsey shot way back in 2011. It was blowin' a gale and I thought that any minute I might take off like Mary Poppins :-) And, the waves were crashing against the rocks!

Feel so near to the howling of the wind
Feel so near to the crashing of the waves
Feel so near to the flowers in the fields
Feel so near

What a breathtaking image, Roger. I love your description of how you felt. :)

This is a new song and artist for me. I really like him and enjoyed both links (love the mandolin and harmonica.) Sounds like you and Helen had a great time. :) (that's neat that you sang :))

A beautiful image Roger. Love the colours in the cliffs. I love the song. I have a Kathy Mattea cd but Dougie MacLean is new to me. He has a great voice

Thank you very much, Carol. And, cheers for the fave. I have most of Kathy's albums and a good proportion of Dougie's albums. I am working on getting the rest of Dougie's albums :-)
