About this Episode
Huge thanks to Hamish Napier! Check out his Bandcamp Page! We listened to tracks from The River, and The Woods Album.

Open up with a clip of me playing a Pibroch I wrote for Grand Portage on the side of the road in the Cairngorms National Park. Then I play a tune from James Aird’s collection “The Braes of Angus”.
Then three glorious tracks from Hamish Napier:
From the River: The May Fly
Woods: The Tree of Life/Lightning
Woods: The Highest Willows
And Conclude with my playing “Michael McDonald’s Jig” in Carnasserie Castle in Kilmartin Glen.
In the future when the world opens back up I desperately hope I get to revisit our hike in the Cairngorms up to Corrie Fee:

And also spend another night at Rosebank House (not Rose Cottage as I say in the audio) in Blairgowrie:
