@jaksspring97 , your problem is with the tunes, not the instrument. Some reels are rhythmic in nature than melodic. These tunes would sound similarly "unmelodic" to your ear on any instrument. The principal requirement of dance music is that it be danceable, not that it have a strong hummable melody.

I hear the puirt, but no beul, just piob. Advertising fail!

If you like the combination of pipes, guitar, fiddle and piano, you should check out Battlefield Band too (:

Dear jaksspring97, you are just not used to the sound. The pipes are amazing. As is this entire set of tunes. Thanks for posting!

The second reel is from Iain MacDonald's pen : Ann(e) MacKechnie's favourite. a great tune ! The third is on Allan MacDonald's and Margaret stewart cd but I can't remember its name.
Cheers

Are you on crack? it's a different kind of melody to a piano or violin, for sure, but they have a rhythmic passion to them that no other instrument can match, save possibly the bodhrain. They're the most stirring instrument out there, bar none.

@jaycon99 "Transatlantic Sessions" is a BBC Alba TV series for Scotland. The tunes last around 30 minutes. The sessions were produced in 1995/ 1997/ 2007 and 2009. This here is a very old one, maybe TS 1 or TS 2. The musicians look very young. The musicians are from Scotland, Ireland, England and the US bluegrass scene. TS 3 is available at DVD and 2 CD set. We wait for TS 4 now, it was on air in late 2009.
