  • Apart from her lovely sound, and the coolness of actually performing this, I have to say that I love Rona Lightfoot's name.

  • will you have a listen to this lot?

  • @urikadoori yeah, it gives off a sort of drone effect

  • Was it a song prior to that point? It sounded more like words, but I wouldn't know since I don't speak Scots Gaelic.

  • Found it on their first album "Bodachan A'Mhìrein"

  • It seems to me that The Rankin Family sang a Gàidhlig song to that tune on one of their early albums.

  • 2:35 starts High Road to Linton, Reel

  • Excellent the hability of that woman ! and Alain McDonald is so a awesome piper.

  • how would someone learn a pipe tune with a mouth harp?

  • I bought a "jew harp"a few years ago in scotland...now i know what is cald thank you.. p
