Bill is from Innisfail where I came from. Alan came from Scotland and lived in Vancouver during the 80s and 90s. Alan and Bill played often at the WISE Club where I hung out when I was single. I don't know if Alan is still in Vancouver. I lost touch with both Fellows after I got married in 95. Alan's dad was the director of the Glasgow school of art.
The bagpiper is Alan MacLeod. He and Bill Bourne played as a duo for awhile. This song was off their cd entitled Moonlight Dancers, 1992. They also made Dance & Celebrate in 1990. I loved them because I grew up in a family of bagpipers and folk singers. It's too bad the video maker didn't give full credit to both.
