From Jack Lee to Finlay MacDonald, Terry Tully to the Red Hot Chilli Pipers, the major stars of this musical world tell their tales
Gather round the fire, grab a dram and join the world's top bagpipe players—they have quite a few stories to tell. Their stories are hilarious, revealing, and often moving as they speak about a musical and cultural passion that has consumed their lives. Why did the NYPD leave a crime scene to speak to Willie McCallum? Did Gordon Walker really sleep with the Crown Jewels? Is there a secret dram for a better performance? What's it like for traditional musicians to be treated like rock stars? With a foreword by renowned Scottish musician Eddi Reader and the world-acclaimed Carlos Nuñez, this is a wild and wonderful tour of Scotland’s traditional music—funny, deeply personal, heartfelt and essential to musicians and music lovers alike.
