The Regiment:
Pipes and Drums - Raised in 1946 through the de-mobilisation of the Lothians & Border Yeomanry, The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards Pipes & Drums have gone on to become one of the most famous pipe bands on the planet.
Musical accomplishments - In 1972 following the amalgamation of the Royal Scots Greys and 3rd Carabiniers, the Pipes & Drums along with the Regimental Band rose to the top of the charts with their recording of Amazing Grace, earning eight gold discs for worldwide sales of over 7 million copies. This recording also brought piping to a worldwide audience and marked the beginning of bagpipes becoming incorporated with other musical ensembles. The recording set the foundations for commercial success and the Pipes & Drums went on to record further albums including Highland Cathedral and Parallel Tracks featuring Dire Straits’ guitarist Mark Knopfler. In 2009 the Pipes & Drums rose back to stardom with the Album “Spirit of the Glen – Journey”, recorded in Al Basra, Iraq whilst serving of Op TELIC 12. The album went on to win NS&I Album of the Year at the Classical Brits, making the Pipes & Drums the first ever military music group to win a Brit Award. As well as the commercial feats, the Pipes & Drums have also had great success in both pipe band and solo competitions, lifting some of the most prestigious prizes in the piping world.
CONDITION Descriptions:
I base the condition of each of my Records off of's Grading System.
• MINT (M) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all.
• NEAR MINT (NM) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting.
• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play.
• GOOD (G) Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, minor surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing.
• FAIR (F) Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have a stick or a skip. Records in this condition are those you might purchase to fill a hole in your collection until a better copy comes along.
• POOR (P) Well played with little luster and significant surface noise, but still not cracked or broken. Record likely skips and/or sticks. Typically so bad looking that a true “collector” would just toss it out. More useful as a Frisbee. I try not to sell records in this condition.
