"Ballintuim Village Hall, in the heart of Strathardle, first opened its doors in 1931. To celebrate the 75th Anniversary I, as a long time committee member, approached my future brother-in-law and local bandleader Ian Hutson about recording a CD. As a result a typical dance programme with our usual party atmosphere was recorded. A brilliant night’s dancing was had by all to this band of very talented musicians. I’m sure you will enjoy listening just as much as we enjoyed dancing. My sincere thanks to all who made this wonderful celebration possible."
