Desert Storm

Of all the forms of tunes in vogue in the piping world, I have to say I have a particular fondness for hornpipes, even--or perhaps even more particularly--some of the really "swaggering" modern compositions like "Desert Storm" by P/M Robert Matheison of the world-class Shotts & Dykehead Pipe Band. That is the first tune in (or about the first minute and a half of) the medley above, nicely turned out by Turriff and District Pipe Band last year.
