For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. This week we have Iain Cathcart and his Scottish Dance Band in session. Recorded in 2018 to mark the 40th anniversary of Radio Scotland and Take the Floor, Iain and the band take us through some favourite sets and tunes from across the decades.
