Although I'm not Scottish, I always well up inside when listening to the full entrance of the bagpipes and drums in Tattoo on Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells 2 and I'm 'innocent' enough to believe that these are real pipes and not 'sampled' guitars. But can anyone recommend recordings of pipes and drums where I can get that same feeling? Ta Muchly.
Many Thanks for that Stephen...the NYPD, eh - and your thingy worked Boxie - Many Thanks All, I've a lot to listen to, though I guesss that Mike's build up of sound really swung it for me, in this instance.
My OH was in the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards and their pipes drums are fantastic and they have CDs out. I go weak at the knees when they play Highland Cathedral.
