As we celebrated the great Scottish bard on Burns Night, I mused on how bagpipe-like our Henry hoover looked. And after listening to a few of those stirring "pipes and drums of the massed regiments" of whatever tunes on Spotify, I just *had* to write a majestic bagpipe piece, featuring the great McHenry of course! The drone is Henry, naturally, but I lack a set of pipes, so I cheated with a Juno 1 in mono mode, and added some violin and synths. Video was with after FX (subtle 3D) and Premiere Pro, and the poetry is loosely based on the great "To a Haggis". The tune is "amazing grace" (a bagpipe favourite). It's mostly in fun, but also with deep respect to the celebration of poetry over war, smiley appliances and creativity.
