About Mundell Music
Mundell Music came about as a result of David Mundell promoting music at The Famous Bein Inn (Perthshire, Scotland). He bought the hotel in 1999 and in that year Dave Kelly was the first and only artist to play at the venue. Successive artists at the Famous Bein Inn included Curtis Stigers, Long John Baldry, John Martyn, Gene Parsons, Fairport Convention, John Hammond, Andrew Gold, Tony Joe White, Micky Moody, B A Robertson, Albert Lee, Snowy White and the venue developed a reputation as a "living room feel" where you could be part of an intimate audience (max 60) and rub shoulders with legends from the past. Big Brother and the Holding Company played for 2 nights (Only time ever that they played in Scotland) There was a large collection of Fender Stratocaster Guitar Scratchplates which he managed to get signed by many artists (including the Kinks, Free, Status Quo, Eric Clapton...
Henry McCullough (Joe Cocker/Wings) recorded a live CD "Henry McCullough Band Live FBI"
