Bagpipe Waltz by The Red Hackle Pipes & Drums of Scotland

[73380401]

Thank you so much for posting this! I have fond memories of this recording on vinyl LP. My younger bruv & I were outside Peter Henderson's,Renfrew St. Glasgow when P/M John Weatherston came out and told us about the pipe chanter in the window made entirely from Ivory! He said they made it as an experiment one day.I asked what it sounded like and he said it was a terrible sound.I haven't heard the lovely waltz at the end for years,thanks.

Hello. It´s me again. Just to let you know that YouTube labelled my second response as spam just because I listed some of the musicians on the record as well as some details regarding the record itself, label and number. Oh, well... /Cabby

@CroVicCab Please do not worry, CroVicCab. Your comments, feedbacks and assistance had been very helpful indeed.

Thanks again :-)

Hello. Lovely tunes indeed. I found the them on my "Red Hackle in Concert" vinyl album from 1973, side 1, track 2, Slow air and Three Waltzes: "Thug Mi Gaol Do`n Fhear Bhan" (no English title), "Hector the Hero", "Mary Darroch" and finally "Mrs Elder´s Welcome" by A Hutcheon. Organists are John Holton and Billy Lyall, P/M J.C Weatherston MBE, BEM and D/S Wilson Young. I bought my R.G. Hardie set of pipes from P/M Weatherston back in those days. Greetings and enjoy your piping /Cabby

@CroVicCab Wow, thank you very very much, CroVicCab. I finally got to know the names of the tunes.

Honestly, I have not heard "Hector the Hero" (the second tune = the first waltz) played in this waltz tempo before. "Hector the Hero" had been performed at the Edinburgh Tattoo several times in (6/4?) tempo, but I'd never imagine this tune would sound so pleasently different when played as a waltz.

Please post the remaining tunes of your vinyl album and share them with us.

Thanks in advance.

@ClanMcLeod Hello Again. A good idea. Unfortunately I do not own a modern record player with a PC connection but it is on my wish list (or rather to-do list since I have to buy it myself). My trusted old Pioneer is from the early 1980s. But who knows, one of these days...? I bought some vinyls during the late ´70s and early ´80s and some are with bands lesser known today. When the opportunity arises I would be pleased to share these old memories with you. Be Well and Enjoy your piping /Cabby
