For the very best in traditional music, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. This week we have a brand new session from Steven Carcary and his Scottish Dance Band. And we also celebrate the Royal National Mòd which has just come to a close in Inverness. Gary chats to past winners of the much coveted An Comunn Gàidhealach Gold Medal including Alasdair Gillies, Mairi MacInnes and Eilidh Cormack. Plus we hear from this year's winners, John Joe MacNeil and Mairi Callan and play lots more tracks from CD and LP by artists such as Calum Kennedy and Robert Robertson.
