A song about a scottish island by a scouser.

Never picked up on it before.

My grandfather played the pipes, and I find the pipes both stirring and moving.

The Queen obviously felt the same because Prince Philip's body was lowered into the vault with a single piper playing the lament, Flowers of the Forest, and the last act of the Queen's funeral was a single piper playing Sleep, Dearie, Sleep.

In his later years, my father moved to the Isle of Wight but for benefit of local residents did his practice in the nearby woods, not in the house or his garden.

Each to their own DJR. If you find they stir memories of a loved one, then who am I to criticise your opinion of them. Music is, after all, very much subjective. 😊

Interesting history on the use of the pipes in war, too. Thanks for that. 👍🏻

It's hard to make a case for bagpipes enhancing any piece of music. Horrible, loud, droning mess of an instrument. And I say that as a musician who put my parents through me learning the trumpet at high school. [Post edited 4 Mar 14:42]

Poll:

Are this group of ITFC players the best squad in the division?
