Dysart and Dundonald Pipe Band - Live In Concert

Select from currently available formats:
This is a historic recording of a superb performance in 1983 where Dysart and Dundonald Pipe Band, under Pipe Major R. T. Shepherd, were recorded live at a concert in Ballymena. Many think that it was in the mid-to-late 1980s when pipe bands began to break out of the musical straitjacket. Not so; here Dysart and Dundonald lay down new ground rules, including a history making arrangement of a complete pibroch.


"... this re-release is definitely a collectors item ... after all, you're listening not only to THE band of that year ... but also to history in the making. Nice one Robin Morton!"
