    Name these tunes

    I posted this in the Longs Peak Scottish-Irish Festival thread, but didn't get a response. I took this video on my phone during the tattoo...can anyone tell me the names of all of the tunes the Scots Guards played?

    On a side note...Albannach and Brother were awesome!

    Re: Name these tunes

    Well the first tune is Steam train to mallaig. written by Mark Saul.. not sure of the second jig. The third jig.. sadly I can't recall the name. But it was written by Gordon Walker I think..That said it's a 4 part jig. They're only playing the first 2 parts. Sorry I can't help more
