Lochanside is probably one of the best / greatest tunes ever written for the GHB.....it really has everything....(ok no taurlauths!).....as tunes go...it is a tune of "confidence"...as i call it....who can't lift their playing marching down the road...playing Lochanside...it puts a smile on everybody's faces as you march past.........(it is a tune i really love to play.....especially in massed bands!) my other favorite tune is ........"Caberfeidh"........now there's a tune......a "serious" tune......a tune with "intent"......play Caberfeidh....and the path opens up for you.....even God stands aside!
Love this tune, makes a great uplift finale to the Green Hills and Battles O'er. Just played it and paused after the second part, ok a good tune so far but as you say the 3rd part seals the deal and acts like a reprise to close the tune.
I’ll grant you that Lochanside is melodic and even uplifting but it can’t compensate for that slogging predictable tune Green Hills. Even a hydraulic jack wouldn’t lift Green Hills.
@@piperg6179I think the problem with Green Hills is pipers just play it so much we become immune to it. It's actually a decent tune with a good story behind it and recognised by many non-players. It comes in handy at the end of a long march/parade when we're getting tired and we need something we can play almost without thinking.
@@MrBagpipes You may be right, but i still hate the tune. Hundreds have died of boredom while listening to it. When I get to be world dictator any piper who even tries it will be sent to a dungeon and we will allow Green H to be played only on primitive instruments such as the piano and fiddle.
Unimpressed! As far as i am concerned, in this class of tunes, The Highland Brigade at Magersfontein is far better, far more lyrical and far more interesting. A previous comment says that Lochanside is a good follow on to Green Hills of Tyrol. Actually, any tune is a good follow on to Green H. Even five minutes of low G is better than that dreary, predictable slog.

Thank you very much
This and Killworth Hills are my two favorite marches.
In this category, The Highland Brigade at Magersfontein is the runaway class act.

for green hills.....you need to really point it to give it lift....also to up the tempo a bit.....many 3/4s suffer from being crucial@@piperg6179

Adore this tune. Here is a favourite recording of it: ruclips.net/video/WIAvC5bMc6k/видео.html
