Bagpipes anyone?

Cruz: I know what you mean. I guess I 'm wonderinhg if there's an equivalent of a YoYo Ma in the world of bagpipes.

Mull Of Kintyre - Paul McCartney and WIngs.
Amazing Grace -Royal Scots Dragoon Guard (a must)

Try some Rufus Harley..plays jazz bagpipes.Has played with Herbie Mann on some great stuff.

Try some samples at the above youtube site.

I think it was George Bernard Shaw (?) who said "the quintessential Scottish gentleman is well versed in playing the bagpipes - but doesn't!"

I have to agree w/ Cruz 123 - hauntingly beautiful for about 15 minutes, then...nails on a chalkboard!

I have always considered Bagpipes on LP to be one of those perfect thrift store purchases.You know they didn't play it more than twice,neither will you,but it's only a buck.Rufus Harley is not the only Jazz Piper (Bagman?) Albert Ayler gives it a go on one of his Impulse releases I think "Music Is The Healing Force Of The Universe" but be careful around Albert.
