Join us as Iain Mc Sporran QC tells us about the story of Robert Burns and arguably his most famous poem, Tam o Shanter and his depiction of the dancing witches that Tam interrupts on his way home from the pub... we also talk about addressing past wrongs, and why looking at history honestly means recording the truth of the past.

Jings and 'swelp me, Bob. It's a virtual Burn's Supper of a show with authentically Scottish Breabach, Karine Polwart, Peter Maxwell Davies, Alestorm and Andy Stewart. And a few Pretenders like Van Morrison, The Spotnicks, Maxine Sullivan and Rufus Harley. So don the kilt, brush the crumbs from your sporran, break open a bottle of IrnBru, douse your neeps in whisky and settle down to a cross between The White Heather Club and the Hacienda. Sharper than a sgian-dubh on a Saturday nicht.

This episode Gets a wee bit rambling..but they all do I suppose. Really looking forward to being able to record to my computer and a sound controlled space where I can pause and do another take haha. Anyway, we begin with the Stellar performance of The Pretty Dirk from 1953 by William MacLean. The Tune was composed by Patrick Òg MacCrimmon on the Isle of Skye likely between 1670 and 1730 when he was the Piper for The MacLeod’s at Dunvegan. Next original composition: The Pretty Cantle on Shepherd Musette Small pipes. Next an Angus McKay tune: A Skye Reel on my McCallum Highland Pipes. Then James Aird’s setting of “Shilling O’Gairey” as a preamble to… O’Farrell’s Setting of “Sheeling O Guira with New Variations on Uilleann Pipes.
