| Item Description |
Tonal Mackinlay is rather similar in sentiment to Talisker Whisky (JSS760-63). This too is a humorous poem, only instead of merely praising whisky, it praises a piper. Note how the singer is expected to provide a bagpipe-like nasal accompaniment in the last line!
The dedicatee, W F Frame, was a music-hall entertainer and a good friend of Skinner's. Tonal Mackinlay was probably written for him to perform. |
