?Most of us know that Guy Lombardo was the first person to give auld Lang Syne it's New Years Eve Debut and that the song was rooted in Scottish culture. But few know the full history behind a 1600s poet named Robert Aytoun who (arguably) wrote the very first rendition in his piece of work called "Old Long Syne". In this episode of the Roots Music History Podcast, we dig up the roots of the famous new years eve song, Auld Lang Syne. ? #podcaststolistento
