I Love Gellaitry Bagpipes

Drone Sounds of the GHB, Great Highland Bagpipe Solo

I had a lot of fun playing random stuff yesterday. I hope you enjoy listening in on my jams:

Galician, Irish, Scottish Set: Muineira de Casu, Kitty Lie Over, & Rory Gallagher

The best 6/8 march ever followed by one I don’t remember very well: Leaving Port Askaig & Farewell to the Creeks

The grooviest tune I know followed by the second grooviest I don’t quite know: Pressed for Time & The High Drive

Ain’t no sissy Rakes around here: Rakes of Kildare, Snuff Wife, Thief of Lochaber, & The Hen’s March

  2. I agree with Mike,
    I always enjoy your posts and demos.

    & those Gallaitry pipes do have a beautiful sound.

    Are the drones big bore like the vintage bug bore Henderson pipes?
    &. what reeds are You using in this set?
    Kind Regards ;P

    1. I haven’t looked at the bores recently enough to remember anything about them. I don’t think they’re “big bore”. I’m using original Kinnairds with easy tongues.

  3. One more question, please,,,
    Did You make a YouTube video playing
    Pressed For Time & Tge Highdrive on the Gellaitry pipes?
