Before becoming a piper myself, this was the first bagpipe recording I ever owned, a birthday gift from my mother at age 16. Now almost 20 years later, after a long career playing myself and collecting other recordings, I still rate this one as my favourite. The sound quality is not great, but the tone and mix seem to capture my idea of a good military-sounding band just right. No fancy kitchen piping, just a lot of good old standards mixed with some light newer stuff. Pipe Major G.S. Allan is such a great tune, this is the only recording I've ever heard of it - and Innes Tartan pulls it off with great skill.
