recommendations?

Here are a few to try.

I'll make another recommendation for Gaelic Storm who just released another great CD.
Fun, upbeat celtic music and great live show.

A mixture of both traditional and
a little more rock in their mix would be Rathkeltair.
Their piper is Neil Anderson. He is in Iraq right now but he is the
piper in all their recordings and most of the early Seven Nations cds.
He is hands down one of the best pipers I have ever seen.

For a very tribal beat try Albannach.

If you like it more Scottish traditional, I highly recommend
the old blind dogs. Rory Campbell is their piper and he is very tallented as well.

If you like a little "punk" with your pipes, don't forget the Real McKenzies!

I really like 7 Nations, I guess you would describe them as a Celtic/Rock band but not real heavy, just real nice. They play fast songs and slow songs.

Anyone know where I could pick up a copy of the Real McKenzies' first album?
Something about a burly versions of Scots Wha Ha'e seems like good fun. I can't get it through their official merch. dealer, and can't find it on amazon.com, which is downright amazing, as you can usually get next to anything on there.

"Clash of the Tartans" isn't their first release (It is a great album, tho!). They have a self-titled one which was first. You probably won't be able to find an original copy (unless you're really lucky on eBay), but Sudden Death records has an import reissue.

The songs are the same, but the CD artwork is totally different than the original copy.
