Thanks to the forum editor who renamed the thread -

Before starting this, I HAD wandered among Mudcat threads refering to Kathryn Tickell, as well as looked at her own site, but still did not come away with an answer to which would be the "most piping." It IS rather like the request to Jean Ritchie in intent.
I'd heard the name of Billy Pigg, but not the playing. So far I've more familiarity with ullian pipers, and obviously need to expand my listening range a bit farther.
I appreciate all the leads/names offered.
