Amazing Grace: Bagpipes & Drums of Scotland
HAMMERED is the Wicked Tinkers second CD and gets its name from the second tune on the album, “Hammer on the Anvil” (or that persistent pounding you hear listening to their drums and pipes). There are a few tunes and songs that could be considered slow and beautiful, although the Tinkers don’t advocate such things. If you liked the first CD, we think you will love this one. The Wicked Tinkers say “Most tunes on this CD are from the Highlands of Scotland, where the music we love was born. A few of the tunes are Irish (Warren’s heritage), who we feel are brothers to the Scots. Some tunes are Canadian (where our own John MacAdams hails from), a very Scottish place. A wee bit from Australia rounds out the lot.” “We are thankful to all our fans for their support of this unusual music. It is they who help us continue.”

Pipers: A Guide to the Players and Music of the Highland Bagpipe
The world of Scottish bagpiping is introduced in this book, which explores what pipers do, how they do it, and why. Because pipers are often skilled also on the fiddle, keyboard, or small-pipes, or as singers or dancers, their stories offer fascinating insights into the whole traditional music and song repertoire of Scotland. This book shows how traditional music, often assumed to be the anonymous product of the distant past, is the creation of gifted individuals operating in a sophisticated and vigorously ongoing enterprise. The approach is based on the real lives of gifted players, teachers, and composers and traces the evidence of transmission through the generations.
