    These are absolutely wonderful Chris! I look forward to many hours of enjoyment here! I don't speak the language, but listening to it stirs me in a way, not unlike the pipes.

    Thanks so much for posting this!

    Best regards,

    Brooke

    Wow! Excellent find! This looks like an excellent source for those of us who cannot find native Gaelic speakers close by to listen to.

    I have seen this website before - very cool! Another very interesting website featuring oral recordings, photos, artwork, stories, legends, books, etc, and all having to do with the culture of the Scottish Highlands and Islands, is at Am Baile.
