The Ian Smith Band and Tom Alexander

For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for Take The Floor. This week Ian Smith leads our band in session.

And we take a look at the life and career of Tom Alexander who along with his brother, Jack, formed one of the most famous and successful Scottish entertainment duos of the past five decades. Accordion player Tom and pianist Jack toured the world performing at venues such as Sydney Opera House and the London Palladium.

Gary is joined by those who knew and played with Tom and Jack throughout the years as they share stories of the pair and pick some of their favourite tracks.
