4/4 March by J.R Riddell
Thanks Neil for dedicating the Crags to me,I'd like to say thank you on behalf of the guys who never made it home and those that we know aren't here any more.
The commentary before the tune(s), whether it's a local landmark, history, interesting piping information, or anything else, is as good if not better than the world class playing that follows.
My Dad fought on Tumbledown and I Always remember going to Jimmy for lessons when I used to come back from boarding school...well played buddy
said from the heart Neil...nice...
This is a tune our band has in its repertoire and I have to learn it ASAP; this video is perfectly timed! Terrific background context here. I remember following the Falklands War at the time and I always knew where this tune came from but a lot of Americans don't, and have never heard of Mount Tumbledown. The Scots Guards and the Gurkhas pipers were part of an amazing campaign.
Cross…Soldier…Pipes….your best PICTURE
Nice tune Neil grate history about the tune and of course about the Falkland Islands brilliant playing as usual on lovley pipes well done 👏
Great tune and a fascinating story! The history and story at the beginning is a great part of the video rather than just a tune on its own.
Very interesting info about the Falkland Islands. I recall the news coverage about it here in 🇨🇦 Great playing as per usual.
Hi Neil well played big man, I love what You’re doing for the Parkinson’s Charity, it’s so underfunded in the UK but the disease effects thousands, so well done and good luck for the rest of challenge. PS nice to see You’ve still got a full head of hair.
I was taught to play drums by Billy MacKay, late of the 2nd Battalion Scots Guards! He's still going strong, thank you for the video 😊
Thanks!
Just when I think you are struggling you come up with something else away out of the odinary.!
Went daft sharing this one as a tribute to the Scots Guardsmen who died in that conflict and since!
You would have served with my uncle Iain Mackinnon 2SG (Alby)
