This album is a must for the pipes and drums enthusiast as it contains an excellent variety of original material superbly arranged and played by the Pipes and Drums of the 1st Battalion Queen’s Own Highlanders, under the direction of Pipe Major Reese and Drum Major Houston. The overall tone and execution is of the highest calibre. This and the imaginative arrangements could well introduce a new approach to pipe and drums representation.
