Borders Young Pipers - James Thomson and Chris Waite: A lovely collection of fine Borders tunes performed by two very talented young pipers - James Thomson from Hume and Chris Waite from Chirnside. The album showcases the rich and diverse material that can be found in the region, whether it be the older tunes or the newer compositions. The CD which was researched and put together by Dr Fred Freeman, is an outstanding example of Borders music and how it is still very much alive and relevant in today's music scene. Another wonderful showcase album - the 7th in the Borders Traditions Series - featuring the unsung musical delights of the Scottish Borders.
Musicians: James Thomson and Chris Waite - Borders Pipes; Marc Duff - bodhran, bouzoukie; Stewart Hardy - fiddle, viola; Stevie Lawrence - bodhran, bouzoukie; Angus Lyon - accorion, keyboard.
