I Love Morag Of Dunvegan, We Play It & Mull Of Kintyre As Our "Waltz Set" It Is One Of My Fav Sets; Especially When I Learned To Play Seconds On Both Songs, As They Sound Amazing; Except When I Mess Up😀!!
Thanks so much, I grew up listening to all of these pipe tunes without knowing the names so it's great to finally get the breakdown. They're forever in my heart, but now I can search for them at will!!!
I've got an old vinyl pipes and drums album with Black Bear on it... seemingly played in strathspey time, very upbeat. Was it indeed so? Or was this a shaved tune rendition?
Armchair General. The Eighth Army (The Desert Rats) ended up in Tyrol (Austria/Italy) at the end of the Italian campaign in 1945. Maybe that has something to do with it.
