'Knotted'
The Damfankle Ceilidh Band - Brian Yates on Scottish small pipes, Julia Gordon on accordion and Alan Heap on guitar - play on board the Lord of the Glens the magnificent cruise ship that transits the water of the Caledonian Canal from Inverness to Fort William and out around the sheltered waters of Scotland's hauntingly beautiful West Coast.
Included in the programme are four of Julia's own compositions: the strathspey Susan Steven Of Tower House; the reel Jools' Hornpipe; the pipe jig The Speug (a sparrow); and the pipe march dedicated to the vessel in question, the Lord Of The Glens.
