Hooya ! This is why I love my country, The St Andrews flags are flying high from Edinburgh and Stirling castles with the rampant lion fllying with the Hampden ROAR ! i love playing this track when im coming into Edinburgh Waverley.

Takes me back to Meadowbank stadium.On the same gig were The Silencers and Texas.They played this with the thunder n lightning and the rain falling an awesome start to an awesome concert.One of the best live bands I've ever seen.

@frankschlanker....me too mate,came straight from Tynecastle,got a fish supper and went up onto Arthurs seast for a wee while looking into the stadium having a few shandies .Then went down in time to see Texas ...i think?? The Silencers supported them loads of times

[ebodjarvo]

They opened the gigs with this track. They played it behind a big curtain which dropped as they came on stage. It always runs shivers down my spine and a tear to my eye as it reminds me I'm twenty years older now..

[daHolDuk]

me too on both counts, took a while to find the name for this tune I knew, had a cassette but not sure where now.

[LadySleek83]

I love the sound of Bagpipes!

[vaderface73]
