[NSP] August TOTM: "The Peacock Followed the Hen"
Thanks to everyone who voted. The tune of the month for August is "the peacock followed the hen." I didn't find a video on youtube of a NSPiper playing this tune, which means we will remedy a sore deficiency on youtube. There is this video, however: [1]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-Q5hyIg-Nw&feature=related There are numerous recordings of the tune, but if you need help finding one please let me know. This tune is appropriate for Border pipes, otherwise known as Northumbrian Half-long pipes, so hopefully a few Border pipers will participate. Please post links to your video or sound files here in this news group and on [2]www.northumbrianpipers.org.uk TOTM thread. Have fun! -- References 1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-Q5hyIg-Nw&feature=related 2. http://www.northumbrianpipers.org.uk/ To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html

[NSP] TOTM/shameless plug
Hello all I've been reluctant to vote on this since our house is fighting back whilst we put in a new kitchen, downstairs loo and new wee studio. There is building dust everywhere and my pipes, mics and other gear are packed away for the duration. Even though I can't contribute musically I would go for Peacock. Perhaps most will be familiar with the snippet: Aal the neet ower and ower And aal the neet ower agyen Aal the net ower and ower The peacock followed the hen The cock's a dainty dish The hen's aal hollow within There's nee deceit in a puddin' An' pie's a dainty thing I also think of (but no idea why or where it comes from) Won't ye come cuddle me cuddy Now won't ye come cuddle me reet Won't you come cuddle me cuddy Just as ye did yesterday neet That's about all I can offer on TOTM but I also thought some might be interested to know that I have put my chanter where my mouth is so to speak and had a very happy off-the-cuff couple of days putting down 16 tracks (4 of them double tracked) on my keyless pipes (The Primitives as maker Bill Hedworth called them). I did it primarily as a teaching resource (even though there are a few finger-busting favourites) but I've been persuaded to go for a proper production of it. Interested parties can go here to see what Stewart Hardy makes of it: [1]www.robbpipes.com Thanks for any interest Anthony -- References 1. http://www.robbpipes.com/ To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
