Subject: RE: Origins: MacPherson's Lament or Rant or Farewell
As the 12 year anniversary of my late Beloved's Passing and Wake is coming up in April, I have taken the liberty of copying my post from the earlier STORY BEHIND MACPHERSON'S thread!!
I do so love the vidclip of Rawlins Cross playing the music in the snowstorm (esp whilst I dwell Down Under in the current heat and humidity!!!!)

Here is another "MacPherson's Lament",
: nobly played in 2008 by Canadians, Rawlins Cross, whilst it was SNOWING (as you can HEAR from the whistle and pipes!)

My late Beloved requested this particular one at his Wake, so it always brings on the tears :)

Cheers,
