The Glasgow Open-air Testimony Band led by Pastor Raymond McKeown consisted of a group of 'characters' - men who were lifted from the depths of sin and made trophies of Grace. One such was a big man called Duncan Donaldson (Drunken Duncan)...this is his story, and his singing(!!). Enjoy....and if you are not Scottish you will need to listen very closely!

“ Great Sermon! ” Simply Amazing Grace to stumble across this old vibrant sermon testimony recording of Mr Duncan Donaldson and undoubtedly a meaningful miracle that an old discarded tape recording found its amazing way from a trash dumpster can to being made available worldwide on the internet.
I remember meeting Mr Donaldson when spending a couple of years in Scotland as a teenager back in 1982-1984.
He was quite a character that resembled an ox on steroids. His amazing strength extended all the way to his finger tips and it was impressive to see him bending 6 inch iron nails between his fingers - like they were plastic sticks. Apparently it also took 6 reinforced policemen to hold him down for drunken behaviour. All that changed when he found salvation through Christ and put under new management by The Lord.
I remember his testimony along with his Snow White T-Shirt with the printed inscription: «I am under new management»
May he further rejoice with his manager in Heaven and may his testimony recording go viral here on Earth.

“ Great Sermon! ” I found a trove of reel to reel tapes on the side of the road in the trash. These tapes belonged to a man who was an evangelist and missionary from Iowa. No idea how they got here, but the tapes are the cumulated document of this man's evangelism and correspondence with other Christians and preachers he kept contact with circa 1960s-early 1970s. One tape I have is labeled "My Sermon at [illegible] Dallymoney?" Duncan Donaldson. I have listened to it, there is a stirring sermon and singing with accordion accompaniment.

“ Great Sermon! ” This man (Duncan Donaldson)was my school janitor when I was a kid in Airdrie, Scotland. Once a notorius hard drinking violent man. Hardest man in a an area full of hard men. Feared by all (including the police) for many miles around. "Dunky" accepted Jesus and became a true gentle giant and local hero. He was worshipped by the kids at Dunrobin Primary School for his kindness and charisma. I remember Dunky put on a strong man show for the whole school in the gym. Bending iron bars and lifting benches full of children etc.
God bless Dunky!
