What are your al*** recommendations featuring bagpipes - regular or electric?

As a Scot I feel I really ought to try and help even though the merest skirl has me running in the opposite direction in haste;

Hi Fama

Thanks for all the input. I've already been checking out Martyn Bennett and like what I've heard so far on Spotify. I'll be sure to check out the others too!

Kind Regards

Stuart

If you want something a bit different. Uilleann pipes and Steve Winwood.

That's more like it. For some reason I can't like Scottish bagpipes, too many drones I think. Uilleann/Irish(especially) and Northern pipes make a much better sound, and can be quite magical. As well as Davy Spillane,Ronan Browne and Michael McGoldrick are good too.

An orchestral suite for uilleann pipes played by Liam O'Flynn with Paul MacAteer (drums), Garvan Gallagher (electric bass) and Tommy Hayes (bodhran).

Introduction
The Brendan Theme
Jig: Water under the Keel
Journey to the Faroes
The Cliffs of Mykines
Mykines Sound
Journey to Iceland
The Gale
Labrador
Newfoundland

Or just buy every Planxty elpee - you'll not regret it.

+1 on the Peatbog Faeries, the first time I've heard bagpipes and not had to vacate the immediate area.
