These lyrics came to me while on heavy doses of morphine for cancer pain. Just a fun parody of Amazing Grace for us bass players. I also posted it in the Covers thread.
Thanks to @John_E and @TNKA36 Brian for contributing to the production.
Please watch to the end for important message.
Wow, This is an awesome global video. Thanks @PamPurrs @John_E @TNKA36.
@PamPurrs I just got an Electric Upright, how difficult is it to use the bow?
Outstanding. Thanks for sharing
It requires a high quality bow, good strings, some bowing lessons, and lot’s of practice. Also, some EUBs do better under the bow than others.
Wow, that’s super cool.
@John_E nice sax skills, yo! @TNKA36 is really starting to rock those pipes, as well.
Well done, everyone.
Thanks @PamPurrs. My left arms are so tire after one night playing on the EUB. I sure hope it gets better.
Absolutely wonderful
Very nice, Pam (and John and Brian)!
I swear I had something in my eye there at the end… salty liquid started to run down my cheeks!
Great production, even though I could swear @TNKA36 was out of tune; just a smidgen perhaps

If I’m not mistaken, the bagpipes can only be played in one key (not sure which one). John and I played Amazing Bass in C Major. Also, i don’t know if there’s a way to tune the pipes. Perhaps Brian can comment on that.
With that said I thought Brian @TNKA36 did a remarkable job, especially given the fact he only recently started learning the pipes.

I was trying to be funny, Pam… they wouldn’t be bagpipes if they sounded in tune After all, they were meant to scare the bejeezus out of the enemy!

Totally, very impressed. What kind of bet did you lose there, Brian??

which is the main reason bagpipes were banned in Scotland for many years.

Were they?? I thought they kept the English out

Always… and I hope that will never end
So much fun to do.
Glad to be a part of it and glad you all dig it.
