Pipe Music on the Net
For the enthusiasts of the pipes, I found a real audio file at the following
URL:
http://www.radio.cbc.ca/programs/takefive/archives/RealAudio/RA_index.html -
open "Bagpipe Friday".
Not surprisingly there is a Sinclair story there! The commentator reads a
letter from the Hon William R Sinclair QC who tells of his experiences while
in the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve with Landing Craft: during the
Dieppe Raid, while landing the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders from Winnipeg,
their Piper played "With a 100 Pipers"; later he was with the 2nd Bn The
Highland Light Infantry at Sicily, with piping every evening. His
Grandmother was from Maryhill in Glasgow.
Yours aye
Iain
