    Daz, After I read your post earlier and realized Gordon had past, I googled it up and read about it. I was floored! I don't know how I missed it in all this time. Like I said I must have been under a rock somewhere. I did not realize he was not a "professional" piper! I agree he was a genius, his recordings are amazing. Its talent like his that makes "professionals" humble. I am glad that they are publishing his tunes now in book form. I realize my piping will never be at anywhere close to a 10th of his but he is still an inspiration. The trust is definately a nice tribute to such a talented man and a very worthy cause. I am planning on donating to it soon. I love the Sleeping Tune and when ever I hear it now it will make me a little sad, but I know the almighty is sitting there enjoying one heck of a recital (and I bet Seamus is still sitting in the corner grumbling!).
