Aignish (Capercaillie)

Another exceptionnal song of the Capercaillie, where Karen Matheson once again displays her stunning voice over gaelic lyrics.
Photos mainly display the Cuillin Hills in Skye - there's one of the Braes, but that's still on the Eilean na Cheò.

Thank you for sharing this song. I'm in America and have researched my family history back to Scotland and the Skye area. I'm thrilled to be able to see pictures of this special place, as I'm disabled and will probably never see it in person. I'm also trying to learn Gaelic. I've always been drawn to this area of the world and it's music even before I researched into my family background. It's definitely in the blood! Thanks again...

Not a glimpse of Aignish but lovely none the less

 A very nice video with a beautiful landscape that, along with Karen's voice, gives peace of mind.

Grazie

@rblack2566 I sincerely hope that you can see it in person, inspite of being disabled. You must be proud of your origins.

@eamonmmac I thought you'd pick up on that one about Marco! ;-)

@Ljotulfson I watched it too. A sin alright. The thanks you get for helping some people I suppose. Better leaving them alone.

LOL its not him! He only does some odd work there, but does not lack interest in its produce.

@eamonmmac Thanks, I've just listened to it, coincidently after seeing the on the news, the funeral of 'Aid' worker Linda Norgrove at Ardroil cemetery, Uig.

Its a very natural and pleasant rendition which I'll place an order for shortly.

When I visited the distillery with two friends from Denmark last July, we were shown around by a beautiful young woman, and treated to a dram afterwards. We all bought a bottle, which was quickly consumed on our arrival back home. I'll mention it to Marco!!

@Ljotulfson My favourite song. Performed by Karen is wondeful, but I prefer the version by Cathy Anne Macphee. Look forward to toasting the new year in with some. A friend of mine works there and has promised me some. Still waiting though.
