[NSP] TOTM Hornpipe(s)
Hellos apiece Here we go - flawed as usual - two great tunes that are becoming popular but could be more so. I've been doing up Jimmy Little's pipes which have spent the last 18 years languishing in their box. I've given them a new chanter reed and have re-tongued three of the drone reeds. The set has only been working fully for a couple of days but should get even better with more playing. According to Jack Armstrong they were made by Baty of Wark circa 1850.

[NSP] Re: TOTM Hornpipe(s)
Very nice Anthony! The pipes sound great and there's some fine phrasing in the playing. For a relatively different aesthetic, and a different reading of the word 'hornpipe', see All The Night I Lay With Jackey In My Arms, the middle tune of this duet set [1]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hQc8MIGqvM and please be indulgent regarding our also 'flawed as usual' performance! The two sets sound fantastic when they are spot on in tune, but of course there's never a recording device running on those occasions.
