'The Crags of Tumbledown Mountain' - Scots Guards - Band with 1st Battalion P&D combo!

On Saturday 23rd September 2023 I received a facebook message from Haizhen of youtube channel "Haizhen's Hut" fame to alert me to a free concert by the Band of The Scots Guards and The Pipes and Drums of the 1st Battalion of the Scots Guards in St. Andrews Square, Edinburgh.

1 hour later I was in position and found a great spot right next to The Lord Provost of Edinburgh Robert Aldridge where I setup my Nikon z6ii with 24-200mm lens on a tripod and chatted to the provost about his recent equestrian skills on The Royal Mile at The Riding of the Marches!

I decided to work my monopod mounted Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ2000 to get the zoom shots too. This footage is from that camera.

This is tune 1. Youtube's ContentID system copyrighted it and declares it to be "Pride of Princes Street"

My dads old Regiment and it was also his Battalion (2nd Bttn Scot Guards now F coy ) that was on Tumbledown Mountain and the story of how this tune came to be is amazing
