Background

RareTunes was started in 2006 by Stuart Eydmann and the late Derek Hoy who saw the need for such an archive and wished to demonstrate its potential. It remains an independent, not for profit project undertaken without external funding.

Rare

In modern Scots, 'rare' is applied to something special or particularly enjoyable. The Dictionary of the Scots Language quotes Ian Rankin in 'Black and Blue' (1999) writing: "Jings, but it was rare to be home."
