The Red Clydesiders - an interview with Alistair Hulett

A. Ashbolt, University of Wollongong

Abstract

Alistair Hulett, a Glasgow native, is one of Scotland’s finest folk performers and a committed socialist. During the 70s, 80s and much of the 90s he was based in Australia where he made a name for himself as a solo performer and for a period as a member of the highly acclaimed punk folk band Roaring Jack. From punk he moved back to the spirit and style of the folk revival of the 1960s. He is now based in Glasgow, where he performs solo and with Dave Swarbick, his collaborator on the CD Red Clydeside.
