Simon Thoumire | David Milligan: Third Flight Home (2007)

1. The Bonny Lass of Fisherrow/ Love in a Village/ The Ballachulish Walkabout (P/M John D. Burgess, MBE)
   The first two tunes come from Neil Gow’s Repository of the Dance Music of Scotland. The Ballachulish Walkabout is an amazing tune written by one of the best pipers Scotland will ever see. We had a lot of fun trying to translate these titles during a short German tour.
