Artiste: Robert Wilson
Label: Legacy

Robert Wilson was born in 1907. In his early twenties became a professional singer with the Rothesay Entertainers. He moved from there to the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company before becoming a solo singer with a mainly Scottish repertoire. Radio spots, full theatres and stardom soon followed.

Tragically, Robert died in 1964 having never fully recovered from a car accident the previous year. But he will surely never be forgotten, truly ‘The Voice of Scotland’.

This is the first of three volumes of songs which we have produced of this outstanding singer of his time.
