Join Gary Innes for a great programme of traditional music and song. This week we look back to September 1979 and the launch of Take The Floor. We feature two bands, The Wallochmor Ceilidh Band and Robert MacLeod and his Band both recorded at The Aros Hall in Tobermory. And as Radio Scotland marks World Alzheimer's Day, we hear about the music and artists that your parents introduced to you and the memories that go along with the tunes.
