Some of the tracks were recorded in tents in Basra....
It is the first time non-professional musicians have won a Classical Brit.
The CD of pipes and drums music is also the first instrumental album to win Album of the Year.

A video of one track can be found on Amazon. As long as it works outside the UK....

Scotland for ever.... smile.gif

Still part of the import ban, I guess. laughhard.gif Or, maybe it's one of those things that only the Honorable Lord's (and Ladies) of Parliament can get by using their expense accounts... Thinking.gif Can't let the masses have all that good stuff, hey, old chap?
