Will Fly's comment above made me think that perhaps it might be an idea to let you put a face to a name.

On the whole I am not keen on "Talking Head" type videos preferring to use pictures of views around the North of England or elsewhere to accompany my efforts, though I do have a couple of other talking head videos.

Jack, I noticed the handgun adverts as related videos to John Roy Lyall and I didn't think they made sense. Neither the title of tune nor the tags seem in any way to suggest them, but there you are.

I enjoyed the clip of Julie Christie singing Bushes and Briars. She did a good job. They got the flute right too. A one keyed flute is right for the period and more likely among a village community than a multi keyed flute, though the professionals and the well-to-do would be playing eight keyed flutes at that time and possibly even A "new fangled" Boehm system flute. The actual instrument looks as if it was a genuine period flute. They come up from time to time on ebay, but all to often they are cracked so I don't generally bid on them.

Far from the Madding Crowd was the first film I went to see with my wife when we were courting so definite memories for me. I don't remember much about the story, but I remember enjoying the music which they seemed to get pretty much right.

Thanks to the others for your kind words.

Thanks for these, Tootler - it's always good to see/hear the music of other 'Catters. Sort of puts some flesh on the bones - and nice playing as well. :-)

Why on EARTH do you get handgun adverts as related videos for "John Roy Lyall"?

Your "Moorland Air" reminds me of this:
Bushes and Briars
