Free Music Notes for The Bagpipes & Drums of Scotland
Free Music Review: Fun collection
Hit: 4 Stars
This collection is just that, a mixture of tracks that are of various levels of both artistic and technical ability. They were obviously recorded at different times and in different environments, some in good studios w/ good engineering, some not, but it's still a good "fun" collection w/ plenty of standards and excellent drumming on most tracks, which is what I bought it for.

Hit: 4 Stars
This is a very good military, formal pipe and drum recording. The volume and sound is clear, the tunes certainly satisfy the thirst of someone craving scottish pipes.Free Music Review: Makes a Scot proud
Hit: 5 Stars
The cheapest 2-disc set I have ever purchased in my life. Very good quality, awesome songs. Scotland the Brave is played at least three times in some form or another. A lot of well-known favorites: Amazing Grace, Cockney Jocks, etc. I'm actually playing some songs from the discs at my wedding. Very upbeat, traditional bagpipe and drum music.Free Music Review: Pipes and Drums Potporri

These two CDs are a grab-bag selection of Scottish pipe band recordings going back over the years. Most of them are civilian bands which play in the competitonal style. While I'm not a big advocate of collections like this, prefering the original recordings if possible; many of these tracks are no longer available. Others may still be out there. At least the bands are listed and the tunes they play appear to be accurate as well. This is not often done with these types of potporri collections where bands and music are often just thrown together in slip-shod fashion. The last few tracks on the 2nd CD are interesting becasue they are the massed bands, pipes and drums of the Scottish Division. These selections are no longer available commercially. Buy this collection if you are a pipe band nut and just want a lot of good pipe music by different bands.
