Hey all,
Please find below a tune called Jock Broon’s 70th. It’s a reel composed by Gordon Duncan (thesession.org/tunes/10023 ), a bagpiper from Scotland.
Thanks for listening.
Cool! Cool tune and some nice fiddling there! Sounds good!
I love these 'rolling' notes!!! Think they are hammer ons, am I right?
Very cool tune! Keep on posting :-)
@Scotty Road and @Groundhogpeggy, thank you for your kind and supportive comments, much appreciated.
@Quincy, hey yes, what I think your referring to is when am using the third finger on the D or (A string), are hammering onto the fourth finger, but also at the same time crossing over onto the open string. In Scotland, think it’s sometimes called a ‘cranny’.
It's a cranny...wow. Do you know of any nooks? I mean...it sounds funny but it's a serious question...lol.
Ha ha, no don’t think there is one :)
Cool tune, it sounds great! :-)
Are you finding people to play Scots tunes with in your area? I have not met musicians who play Scottish tunes, but I do know some people who do Scottish dancing…it seems like a blast!

Originally posted by Scotty roadNice playing, I like the touch of reverb gives it a nice deep sound, enjoyable tune
I used to record in the bathroom for reverb. My new place is too noisy for much recording these days.
I like it! Good job.
@NCnotes., Thank you. Unfortunately, haven’t found folks in my area to play Scottish tunes with. There is an Irish session fairly close by, but haven’t plucked up the courage yet.
@ChickenMan., my wife does NOT like the fiddle, nor my choice of tunes. So from the start, always played in the bathroom with the door shut. You got it spot on!
@RinconMtnErnie., thank you!
Thank you for the reminder that I need to hurry and finish learning this before session on Thursday... they rip through this somewhere between 100-108bpm and it's so much fun. Cracking tune!
