Azizi - I've probably gotten a little carried away here, but you of all people should understand that! Anyway, here are a number of samples from the Cape Breton singer Mary Jane Lamond, from: http://www.maryjanelamond.com/music.html ... No doubt there would have been a way of linking them, but I don't know what it is. My apologies! If you look at the track listings from the albums, you'll find these among them. I have put an NB in front of the songs that are done in a straight traditional manner. They are all some manner of call-and-response songs in Scottish Gaelic: From "Storas": [mp3] » Gur e mo rùn an Dòmhnallach (It is my love the MacDonald Man) [mp3] » Bal na h-Aibhne Deas (Ball at Southwest Margaree) » Cumha Aoghnuis( Lament for Angus) » An Gaidheal am measg nan Gaidheal (Gael among the Lowlanders) "Gaelic Songs of Cape Breton": NB [mp3] » Illean Aigh » Cead Deireannach Nam Beann » A Fhleasgaich Vasail » Puirt Eos Peadair (Joe Peter's Tunes) NB [mp3] » Oran a' Phiognaig » Am Braighe (lead singer a male in this one; in Cape Breton men participate in waulking, or milling as it's known in C.B.) NB [mp3] » Nighean Dubh, Nighean Donn "Lan Duil": NB [mp3] » Ill ù ill ò illean's ò (may be some children singing here,maybe just child-like voices) "Suas e!": » Oran Snìomh (Spinning Song) [mp3] » Seinn O » Dòmhnall Mac 'ic » E Horò NB [mp3] » Oran do Ghille a Chaidh a Bhàthadh (On the Drowning of a Young Man) "Bho Thir Nan Croabh" NB [mp3] » He Mo Leannan: Hey My Love NB [mp3] » Cha Bhi Mi Buan: I Will Not Survive » Ba, Ba, Ba, Mo leanabh: Hush, Hush, Hush My Little Baby (maybe a mistake in the titles here?)
