EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative cover image from The Tatler's Scottish Number, published in 1964, showcases Pipe Major Iain McLeod of the Edinburgh City Police Pipe Band in full regalia, standing proudly before Neidpath Castle on the banks of the River Tweed. The castle, a historic property of the Earl of Weymss, serves as a fitting backdrop to this traditional Scottish scene. Pipe Major McLeod's uniform is adorned with the tartan of the ill-fated Prince Charles Edward Stuart, also known as Bonnie Prince Charlie. The connection between the pipe major and the prince is not merely symbolic; McLeod was a dedicated historian and preservationist, deeply committed to the rich musical and cultural traditions of Scotland. The image captures the essence of Scotland's storied past, with its connection to history, tradition, and the hauntingly beautiful landscapes that have inspired generations. The sound of the pipes, a symbol of Scottish pride and resilience, carries through the ages, resonating in the hearts and minds of those who hear it. The photograph, taken in 1964, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of tradition and the importance of preserving the past for future generations. The image, which has been meticulously scanned and restored from the original print, invites us to reflect on the history and heritage of Scotland, and the role that music and tradition continue to play in shaping its identity.
