Another one of those tunes that
pop into my head at 3:00 a.m. - Thank you Lord.
- Pipes in Space
Zeto the Bubbleman - Gordon Duncan
Sleepy Maggie - Trad.
- Holy Moly - Randy
Wothke
The name of this tune springs
from the fact that in the beginning it was so difficult
to play. Being a blend of pipe music and rock & roll,
the result, surprisingly, is that you can forget
there are no other instruments playing except bagpipes
and percussion.

this rendition of a classic tune.

- Groovy Scooby - Randy
Wothke
Another fun mix of bagpipes and
rock and roll. This tune got its name from the 70's
rock style of which it is reminiscent.
- Reels
The Gravel Walk - Trad.
Andy Renwick¹s Ferret - Gordan Duncan
- The Rose of Sharon
(Sharon's Tune) - Randy Wothke
This is the first tune Randy
wrote that he thought was pretty enough to name after
his wife. The tune proved extremely difficult to
perform, as the tuning of the tempered scale of today
clashes with the untempered tuning of the bagpipe.
The consequence is many minutes of tuning; the keyboard
to match the lowest note on the bagpipes, followed
by tuning all of the other notes on the bagpipe to
the keyboard.
- 'Scuse me?
The Puddin Race - Lars Sloan
Visions of Haggis frolicking about
