I have posted this on the SAW Group but thought I might add it to the forum here as it seems a natural home for a pipe march! I built this octave back in April 2006.

Great tune. I recorded it on my album Like Father Like Son.

I have that very album, Dagger, and enjoy it regularly. You and Colin make a grand duo and your 2/4 marches are a joy.

Was Wade going to the "Inverness Gathering"? That's a march I play on fiddle.
Thanks for that , John.
Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."

Thanks, Ranald. Here is link to a version of The Inverness Gathering I posted away back eight years ago.

Thanks, John. I enjoyed your take on The Inverness Gathering. I learned my version from a tape of Perce (Percy) Peters, a Cape Breton fiddler, probably of my grandparents' generation. He was my great-uncle's friend. Perce's was a more aggressive version, heavy on the beat. It makes me think of dancing in a Cape Breton hall. I play in his style, but also like your interpretation. (Perce is hard, perhaps impossible to find, online, with only a couple of references to one of his two tapes.)

Not entirely sure of the etiquette here (being pretty new), but I posted my version, an octave up, over at the SAW group, in response to John's.
No problem with posting elsewhere in the MC site, Richard. Some of us, myself included, post in more than one place - there are folk who are regulars in the SAW Group but also use the Celtic, etc and Post A Video of Yourself sections. There are viewers in each group who do not necessarily look in the other places.

Fine playing both. Couldn’t find the Nigel Gatherer version.

Thanks for clarifying, John. And thank you too, Simon.
