Fred is obsessed with music. He never sleeps, I spent some time with him a few years ago in Cape Breton and he would stay up all night playing tunes by himself. He's amazing! Nice guy
This is definitly one of my favourite clips of the whole series. I love Fred Morrisons face at 3:16. It's like he's surprised by the sound they're producing. The bouzouki, dobro and pipes blend so well together.
+Bverlooy and the funny thing is that Michael McGoldrick looks at the window, as if Fred Morrisons saw a gost ! :) Great music... I love it all so much!!
. sma sinn. Tomtscotland, your efforts are much appreciated by this UA-cam user.Between Transatlantic and Highland sessions and what other folk download onto UA-cam; it makes me bluidy homesick at times.
Jerry Douglas. He's been around a while in bluegrass and country circuits, including Alison Krauss and Union Station. He has also recorded with Tony Rice, J.D. Crowe, Ricky Skaggs, and many others. A number of good albums out under his own name as well.
One word...Magic! couldn't be anything else with these guys..... :) tomtscotland - virtually all vids you have here are wonderfull, it's a great collection...keep 'm coming! I subscribed anyway. Thanks!
Great music -Fred makes it look so easy -the sure sign of a master performer .This is an excellent combination of skills for all the players...lets see more like this -makes a change from the strained glum faces
Does anyone know whether the title 'Farewell to Uist' is real or an error? Last I know, Fred Morrison hadn't named the waltz that he plays alongside Lochaber Badger, and farewell to Uist is a very different tune, but it is possible the two have the same name.
Michael McGoldrick eventually switched to playing goldies instead of Kerry Pro, so it could possibly be a Goldie. You can tell the difference easily on the tunable models because the tuning slide is different (the kerry pro has an external slide, and the goldies is internal), but it appears he is playing an untunable one here, so it's hard telling which, as they look nearly identical.
Rip the Calico seems a tad fast but very rousing, at least for me. Love Lochaber Badger especially though, wonder tune, and that dobro fits nicely. Not sure what Fred was thinking there with replacing an entire phrase with a repeated ornament though.... good nonetheless, and wow, Donal Lunny certainly looks different than when he was with The Bothy Band...
+yassy588 I don't think climate in general affects pipes. They can be somewhat adjusted, but if it's below freezing outside, I found them to be extremely difficult. Temperature variations may affect them, like when you tune up in an air conditioned room and then play outside.

It's one of the best music videos i've ever seen...
I wish I could have that much fun at MY job!
What a combination of sounds, Great Stuff. Touches of The Bothy Band!!!

At the end of the day, he's still just a piper.
Lovely music. It's good to see real artist taking such joy in their noble art!
Slàinte!
This is just a whole bunch of goodness :)))))
what a wonderful performance since 2:27, when the bagpipe breaks in !
🎉 Farewell to uist and rip the Calico
Incredible... I follow each of them, and the performance is the best!

Perfection. Made my day!

Great! McGoldrick rocks as usual! Thanks for the vid!
That'll be enjoyment of great music played very well. I thought it was infectious but obviously you are immune to joy. Lucky you.
I'd have loved to be in that room!
Cool! What people will do without such a beautifull music.

Really enjoyed the three new tracks on Freds MYSpace website -fantastic vibe and -as usual- outstanding playing

Mike's playing uilleann pipes, while Fred is playing reelpipes. Check out reelpipesdotcom for more info on those.
....your appreciation is appreciated!
The pipes Fred is playing are "reel pipes". HIs own invention I believe.
If anyone knows, is Farewell to Uist played on a D or C whistle?
Freezaen It's a D whistle :)
D whistle.. tune is in E minor
D
The last song is Rip The Calico, not the badger ;-)

Did Fred play any more in this secession?

They are playing Low D whistles. Mike Mcgoldrick is playing a Kerry Pro Low D and Fred Morrison is playing an MK Low D (I think).
You're right about the MK. Mike's an Overton / Goldie.
Anyone know who is playing Dobro?
this is awesome what albums are these on?!
I can breathe again :)
Umh on which tones are that flutes??D?
top!
*clap clap clap clap clap clap*:)
Click "more" top right :)

Definitely a Goldie.
Yes can be found in his new book on page 47
the low whistle of mcgoldrick is a overton whistle(now colin goldie whistle)
that was amazing!! those are uillean pipes, right? love it
Google for MK Whistles by Mischa Somerville.
Transatlantic sessions 3 volume one album of the TV series
Fred is playing an MK whistle made by Misha Somerville. Very nice instruments.
what is the name of this movie??
it's transatlantic sessions 3rd series if i'm not mistaken
@basis64 Not necissarily a very fast reel. Lovely when played slower as well.

Michael is playing an overton (I have one in black), not too sure what fred is playing.
Fred's playing an MK Pro.
♥Micheal♥
clap!!!!clap!!!!clap!!!!
I -think- the mouthpiece looks more Goldie than Kerry Pro. But I'm not sure, I'm not really a whistler. :)
What kind of whistles are they playing?
Low D whistles
Michael McGoldrick is playing an Overton/Goldie and Fred Morrison an MK Pro. Both are low D whistles.
Give the man a dram. :)
I have to play this on guitar
+Catherine Movies Tried it, im not a monster on the guitar, but it loses all the magic :(
I've said it before, but SUAS E!
Either Scotish low-land pipes or North Humbrian pipes.
check out my video response, a michael mcgoldrick tune, honesty bar from his album Wired!
Fucking wizard.
they're actually fred morrison small pipes
wonder*ful* tune I meant to say...
It is, they probably just accidentally put it that way
言葉でいえない、いいもの。
俺、地学や地理学、気候なんかにすごく興味あるけど、音楽も好きで、、ゆえに民族音楽にも、凄く魅力を感じてる。。気候帯と民族音楽には深い関係がありそうで、、そのサウンドをその気候帯で聞くという贅沢な旅をしてみたい。
本当は、大学ではそんな地理学や民族音楽のことを学びたかったんだ。。。思い出した、、けど、そ大学が、あはなた来なくてよいと通知してきたから、やめただけだった。。
