From Barry Shears on the Playing of Joe Hughie MacIntyre:
“This recording is from The Shears Collection.
Joe Hughie Macintyre (1891-1968), Rathad Fraingach(French Road) Cape Breton county, The tunes are Tulloch Gorum, Sandy Cameron, Eight Men of Moidart, Miss Proud. Joe Hughie was descended from Duncan MacIntyre, Clanranald’s mid 18th century piper. The family came to Cape Breton in 1826 and piping continued to play a prominent role with successive generations producing 28 pipers and chanter players down through the years after immigration. I was taught to play by Joe Hughie’s first cousin, Angus MacIntyre of Glace Bay.
Joe Hughie only started to read music after his retirement so many of the recordings I have, many with piano accompaniment, reflect some of his later repertory., but there are still a few gems among his own music. I provided several of the tunes in his repertory in both The Cape Breton Collection of bagpipe music and Play It Like You Sing I, Volume 2: https://capebretonpiper.com/content/play-it-you-sing-it-volume-2 .This last book has 249 tunes from various areas of Gaelic settlements in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, Since no two pipers played the same way from area to area, I have transcribed the music with minimum grace-noting since most pipers will add their own embellishments anyway.
I am also including the reference from Joesph MacDonad’s Treatise, regarding paying dance music and doubling up of the notes which describes the piob embellishments used and most examples listed can be found employed by CB pipers I have recordings of. Not exactly as they played in 1800 perhaps, but still some shadows of two the tunes were played.”
