Episode 10 - Bo

Enjoy Your Piping! With Gary West

Gary pays musical tribute to long-term friend and stalwart of the pipe band scene, Drum Major Alister 'Bo' Walker of both the Vale of Atholl and Atholl Highlanders pipe bands who sadly passed away this week after a long battle with illness. There are tunes too from the Simon Fraser University pipe band, from top uillean piping duo, Tiarnan O Duinnchinn and Cillian Vallely, from Australian 'modern piping' guru, Lincoln Hilton, and there's an upbeat cheery Fandango from Galician all-rounder, Christina Pato. Rounding off this week's menu, there's a very fine piece of musical storytelling from the Battlefield Band's vintage album, Anthem For the Common Man.
