I have not heard a track all the way through, let alone the whole thing, but from what I've heard it sounds really great.
I am a huge fan of both traditional pipe band recordings such as SFU and St. Laurence and of the military marching and pipe band recordings such as the CDs from the Black Watch and the Welsh Guard and hopefully of this one. We'll just have to wait and see I guess! oop:
