S4 E12 MacKay, MacDonald, O'Farrell tunes with Special guest Carrie Dlutowski

Since I’m in a new House…seems like the time to play the tune I “Composed” for my friend’s Ric and Berit when they finalized some messy business with their Cabin: Squatter’s Hame Since we did the first tune in MacKay’s book here’s the first in O’Farrell’s Pocket Companion, Humours of the Glen. Read it here: https://digital.nls.uk/87779642 And Another MacKay tune I quite liked, “The Bride has a Bonny Thing” You can see it here: https://digital.nls.uk/105006948 I went back to my house at the last minute to record Squatter’s Haim and just took a quick crack at this lovely Donald MacDonald tune Mary Gray. https://digital.nls.uk/105682550 Speaking of History, finally gonna play the clip Carrie shared with me! Carrie’s set: “The tunes are: The Lass o’ Corrie Mill (strathspey, traditional)/Carnival March (strathspey by Gideon Stove)/Return to Milltown (reel, traditional)/The Cape Breton Fiddlers’ Welcome to the Shetland Islands (reel by Willie Hunter). Emma and I are playing fiddle, and my mom Susan is on piano.” Thanks again Carrie! I miss making music with you so much! You can listen to the album on various streaming services and buy it straight from her website: http://www.carriedlutkowski.com/ And another tune I’ve been enjoying out of O’Farrell: Jack in the Garret https://digital.nls.uk/87780698 Support Wetootwaag's Bagpipe and History Podcast
