A little too much background wind but OMG this is good. My early years were where I was exposed and truely learned to appreciate this. My father was a world ranked Drum Major. Traveled with him to many events. But Amazing Grace always brings tears because it was played at Massed Bands for the closing ceremony at an event where he won a world championship and led the bands. Even now it seems sureal 30 years later. He’s gone now but he will live in the pipes and drums with me forever.

Try listening to that while on a boat on lake ontario, the piper on Fort Kingston’s roof, and we were like 10 km away, and that was only 1 piper, imagine the marine band! and you can hear the win carrying it away…sounds so soothing…never been to Scotland, only my father and my grandfather have, they say its beautiful there, and the culture is fascinating (Im Saudi)

I herd this song played from distance. It was the most haunting sound I’ve ever heard. I never knew these pipes could be heard for that many miles. Hearing the cries softly whisper through the hills is something I will never forget for the rest of my life. God bless those Scottish lads.
