Which types of bagpipes???
I haven't seen (yet) any CDs of Scottish pipe bands (though some might
exist) but there are a number of CDs with either the Scottish,
uillean or Northumbrian pipes as one of the instruments available.
Take a look in ESPN::FOLK_MUSIC. Note #41 there is a note about
folk CDs, including a number of reviews.
Also, entering in all caps is considered shouting and bad notes
etiquette.

| What a riot, I've been looking too. I don't know what you might
be looking for, i.e. solo, band, mixed instrumental, but the
Tannahill Weavers' last 2 albums are out on CD, and the Battlefield
Band has one or two out, too. Both bands feature some solo piping,
but mostly instrumental/vocal mixes, and all are excellent. These
discs are available at Wood n' Strings in Arlington, MA, or by mail
from a company I don't remember the name of, but have their catalog.
Send me mail if you want more info.

| I think this disc was mostly bagpipe. In general look where
they keep the folk music or "international" discs.

| re:.2
The Tannahill Weavers' CD's, and a lot of other fine Celtic
music, is on the Green Linnet label.
Another Green Linnet CD with a fair amount of piping (though,
like TTW, it's just one instrument in a band) is HARD TO BEAT
by Rare Air.

| I've seen several Green Linnet CDs at Rockit Records in Nashua, and bought 2.
They are "The Best of De Dannan" (no pipes) and "The Flight of the Green
Linnet" (some pipes). The latter is a sampler of Green Linnet artists.

| To be nitpicky, though THE FLIGHT OF THE GREEN LINNET is a sampler
of Green Linnet artists, it's actually a Rykodisc release rather
than a Green Linnet one.

| I have seen CDs in Scottish-Irish Import shops, at Highland Games
vendor boothes, and advertised in "The Highlander" magazine of Scottish
Heritage. It seems that there were not very many, but the ones
I saw were on the LISMORE label, which puts out a lot of the
traditional Scottish music on vinyl.
