My Thoughts

Despite not having the most keen interest in bagpipes, I really enjoyed this album! I feel like bagpipes are typically perceived as an "ugly" or "funny" instrument, but this really proved to be a relaxing collection of songs. Not every single track was necessarily calming, but each held beauty in its own right. I hope you enjoy finding beauty in the often neglected "doodlesack," as the archaic Germans called it.
I personally prefered tracks 3 and 7, Jimmy Findlater and Highland Laddie, respectively. I found them to be two of the most engaging yet melodic of the album. Obviously there is plenty of variety between those traits throughout the songs, but I enjoying the balance of these two.
I also learned that the name "Findlater," pronounced "FIN-luh-tuh" or "Finn-luh-ter," is derived from the words "fionn," for white, and "leitir," for cliff. 
Neat stuff!
