It has been. It's on a CD called "Wor Nanny's a Mazer", which is 
otherwise early song & dialect recordings (1904-33).

PHCD2K1  (1999)

My copy says the CD was the result of co-operation between Ray 
Stephenson, Dave Bulmer & Frank Wappat, but although it says there is 
a contact address, I can't see one.

Maybe the Pipes of all nations 78 should be released - with a health  warning!
I have never had the privilege of hearing it, though I have heard some  
remarkable and memorable attempts by people who don't normally play in that  
way.
 
The next war will probably be over how such a warning should be  phrased

The "someone" in question is fully aware that Billy Pigg was a law 
unto himself, and frequently used non-standard methods to achieve his 
sometimes very spectacular (and occasionally spectacularly awful) 
effects.
However I don't think this particular effect should be recommended to 
normal mortals, and in particular beginners who may not yet have a 
thorough understanding of Billy's place in the tradition. I would 
recommend some of his exceedingly good tunes, played at a sane speed.

No, this is not an onlist row starting (nor an offlist one, before 
anyone asks!).
