He is sometimes known, especially in his native Scotland, by the nickname %22The Big Yin%22 (%22The Big One%22). His first trade, in the early 1960s, was as a welder (specifically a boilermaker) in the Glasgow shipyards, but he gave it up towards the end of the decade to pursue a career as a folk singer in The Humblebums alongside friend Gerry Rafferty until 1971 and subsequently as a soloist.
