Description
Last King Of Pictland is the sixth CD from the famous Edinburgh piper "Jimi The Piper". As ever Jimi bends the rules to introduce different genres to the traditional bagpipe repertoire and style. With six new and three traditional tracks with modern arrangements this is a very progressive album. It has touches of heavy metal and progressive rock with Scottish, Greek and Irish!
Released in 2014, it was recorded between Scotland and Portland, Oregon, USA.
