Having long loved Tony McManus' - arrangement of the "Sleeping Tune" - see
I Googled the composer, Gordon Duncan. This led me to the following inspirational, affectionate and moving tribute, which is well worth a watch.

Check out Fred Morrison...
A real Jimi - he does a Jimi-style feedback type thing. He is quite a piper - more a force of nature...
He often plays with Matheu Watson, of Taran fame.
I'd post a vid or two but the power's off up here. Wish me luck!
Alasdair.

I shall look at some more Fred Morrison - I saw a great performance of his on BBC iPlayer, which helpfully shares some of the superb folk music programmes you have North of the Border. Sadly, the English BBC rarely troubles it's little head with folk or acoustic. I hope you get power back soon and are not too badly battered by the weather. We have only got the fringes of the storm front and it pretty fierce here. Fingers crossed for those of you suffering the worst of it. Brian

Luckily the weather's not too bad - the worst of the wind was Thurs - and it's not freezing! Onwards and upwards!
