Barclay James Harvest - The Ballad of Denshaw Mill

Nice song with bagpipes in the intro and outro.

This track by The Flower Kings on Space Revolver features bag-pipes though I guess they're synthesized:

I don't know if they are on PA but Hagalaz Runedance's 'Frigga's web' is full of bagpipes :

Clearly not actually bagpipes, but I always thought the synths in "In the Light" sounded like bagpipes.

I think Horslips used Bagpipes.

Horslips used the Irish uilleann pipes (which is a type of bag pipe) not the more widely-known Scottish bagpipes. You don't blow into uilleann pipes with your mouth like the Scottish bagpipes and they do sound different. See here...... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uilleann_pipes

A guy called Davy Spillane is a great exponent of the uilleann pipes.......if you like that sort of thing.

Nobody mentions Biko and Come Talk to me by Peter Gabriel?

Oh wow Ivan, I almost forgot it had bagpipes the Gabriel one, I have the Secret World Live Dvd awwww Come Talk to me this track is most beautiful!!!!

stunning really

! Thank you for reminding me I must listen to this now!!! Somehow it feels like like Paul Simon and Johnny Clegg yet a tad proggier

I agree that Secret World Life is the video by Peter.

But i honestly don't feel too much from paul Simon or Clegg, he reminds me of Steve Winwood more.

Thanks to you, I will watch the Secret World video tonight, I just bought True Blood on DVD, but without band is not the same, and he will never present a drummer as good as Manu Katche.

Cheers

Iván

Here is the one with Johnny Clegg

Johnny Clegg- Asimbonanga http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX9H40q1vlI obviously none have Peter Gabriel's vocals, but this music reminds of Gabriel on both tracks you mentioned, no bagpipes on here however instrumentals and rhythm also do remind me of your suggestion

No bagpipes here too but this is another track that reminds me of Peter Gabriel's come talk to me, although I must add that Gabriel's is more emtional but it's the feel of the moozik I talk about

Johnny Clegg - Great Heart (46664 Arctic 2005)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxlvJPO49fc

Yes, in terms of World Music with African influence both have a very similar style, as a fact PG is considered by some as the creator of World Music and Klegg as his successor.

But vocally both are different, Johnny reaches higher notes easier than Peter b ut PG has that rough voice and the unique semi yodel.

The funny thing is that both are almost the same age but Peter looks like his dad

Iván

I LOVE IVAN!!! YAY!!!

Here's Peter Gabriel and our home boy Johnny Clegg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldMMThWWFcM here others will undertand were I came from

HOWEVER THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ONE AND DEDICATED TO IVAN :) XXX http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfTkD-XWOFg :) XXX

OH I must add the Nelson Mandela appear here on this vid, a special homage to him

This is one of my fondest bagpipe moments....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15egFvDh69Q&feature=youtube_gdata

Unless you are a Bugs fan and want to enjoy the whole thing, the bagpipe part is over by the 2 minute part (well there is a brief part at the end also).

The intro of East Hastings by Godspeed You! Black Emperor has it, as does the intro to The Seer by Swans. The latter is moreso a noise thing though. Tongue
