Episode XVII goes even deeper down the ancient instrument rabbit hole and looks at the oldest pipes in the world from the city state of Ur in ancient Mesopotamia - believed to be the precursor to all modern bagpipes. This is followed by more pipes throughout history, looking at a few different stages before we get to those we know today. If that wasn't enough we also look at the oldest song in existence, some rare recordings of Traveller musicians and singers, as well as a bit of Busta Rhymes and Frank Zappa for good measure.Tracklist:Unidentified Traveller – Oil Drum JigSean Folsom – Ur PipesBarnaby Brown – Duo 4500-year-old reproduction lyre & pipesTibiae Impares - Quintus Vibius FuscusEfisio Melis – Ballo SardoBarnaby Brown – Northern TriplepipesRichard Dumbrill – H6 Hurrian SongBusta Rhymes – Takin’ What’s MineEmmett Gill and Jesse Smith – The Stoneybatter / John McFadden’sSweeney’s Men – Handsome Cabin BoyFrank Zappa – Handsome Cabin BoyAnne O’Donnell – My Darling Brown Haired BoyUnidentified Traveller – Billy Boyhttps://campsite.bio/firedrawnear
