    Youtube Pipe Bands links

    Have you got any good links for great pipe band music on Youtube? If you know a thing or two about these things then do tell us why you chose what you chose.

    My current favourites:
    1) In this one the power of the massed pipes and drums is so great, the camera goes wonky. It's a brilliant video showing the marching-behind-the-band perspective we would get as kids on gala day:

    2) The best opening of the Edinburgh military tattoo I can find on Youtube. I especially like the deal among the tailors and the drummer's salute.

    Here is a link to a one hour documentary on the late Gordon Duncan, produced by BBC Alba. I`m no expert on pipe music, but I know what I like, and I absolutely love this man.

    If that link doesn`t work, just search "Just for Gordon."

    I've watched it before and absolutely love it. Gordon was a fantastic piper. I would definitely recommend watching it if you're in search of some good piping.

    Gordon was fantastic. He really moves me and presents what is fantastic about the great highland bagpipe.

    Question - why the cheer during Black Bear?
