Signed for the Dons in a record Aberdeen transfer in 1970 for a fee of £50,000. As he was cup-tied, Murray missed out on the Dons Cup winning side of 1970, but the cultured midfielder was a vital cog in the Dons machine that went agonisingly close to taking the title in 1971. Capped for Scotland against Belgium at Pittodrie in 1971, Murray was also Aberdeen captain before a dispute with the club on the 1st of May 1973 resulted in a transfer to Celtic.
