An Intimate evening withDick Gaughan

Kula Productions is please to bring Dick Gaughan to the Frazer Theatre in Knaresborough. I met Dick a number of times when I lived in Edinburgh as I designed covers for a few of his albums including the splendid Sail On. Of course Dick is probably best known for his 1989 Topic Records release Handful of Earth which is now rightly regarded as a bona fide classic. The photo on this page was taken for the inside cover of Sail On by Dave Harrold – at the time a young Edinburgh photographer who now seems to have dropped off the radar! It's a superb shot taken down on Leith's waterfront (where I use to live) and where Dick hails from. It captures the power and strength of not only Dick's singing and music but also of his left-wing political views – a true Scottish troubadour. John Haxby
