I don't suppose the pipes and drums of the Malaysian contingent would appreciate the commentary referring them as being from Malaya.

Some may not find this of concerns, those whom do or and did, Pray tell listen. Since the termed three distinct battles of the global battle lines that formed in 1998, those remember as the third battle and battle lines developed globally as well as by the Grace of GOD that the third could exist while rallying globally that where in courage, whatever doubts reference or and heard holding, that while the third battle you did not lack courage to continue forward in responses, not knowing, knowing, yet still, even a unit and some platoon complements what it regards by not disheartened even on reflection on the termed third battle field and battle lines globally standing together to further confront. Hold such knowing in courage that thereby ensures such where VICTORY prevails. While the 8-9 from the battle first, to the lines for the second battle, allowing a third battle and battle lines yet still where numbers to further VICTORY that history may further reveal will prevail as the formations for the third battle grew from 120-to another 1700 then with 1800 (NATO) then allowing yet still to the 20,000 then 40,000 while the numbers of confronted understood, also understand what courage entails, as the global response rose thereby to and towards 1.2 million - 1.8 million standing to shoulder at arms in confrontations. What defines courage, history prevails.

Thank you to the first considerations practices, where an uproar arose across, "Tis it a heritage legacy Victory for the Bruis current, with the battles of 1998. (1999, 2000, 2000-2002)

Never see anything like this anymore as the British army has been ruined by the government. Kneller hall being closed. Down to 14 bands. 3 of those brass. Whos idea was that. The royal artillery band and engineers two of the oldest band reduced to brass. Terrible.

Dus some one have beating retreat by the household division

Its Dec 2023...just found this on UTube. Superb performance. Bro was a Piper in the Military (Cameronians & 19h Royal Artillery) and we just laid him to rest in Scotland) so has special meaning. Tks to all who participated. Well done all.

Regimental bands Scottish regiments are no longer part of the British army now they have regimental band royal regiment of Scotland 💂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I have this vhs of Scottish division beating retreat do have beating retreat by the guards

if there is one thing that i can't stand it's when someone is talking while the pipes and drums are playing. not to be rude or anything but that is just wrong.

what is the song at 2:14??

Now almost all (if not all) of these regiment no longer exist all have been merged with other regiments and has been reduced down to Battalion size...

lol😂

What has been done to the British army over the last 30 years is an absolute disgrace. Reform the Scottish, Lancashire and Rifle regiments now. God save the King.

There is a recording on music tape where the perfect drone sound of the pipes better heard. A really great show!

so sad to think what the UK has lost since the 1990s

Shouldn't it be the French Division beating retreat?

I ran across this KZfaq posting which may be of interest to anyone who liked the above video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kL-odqWIy5atgZ8.html It's titled "The Silver Spear", but it actually contains all 8 pipes and drums tunes played in the above video from 24:26-32:01 (Prince Charles Welcome to Lochaber, Mingulay Boat Song, The Swallow Tailed Coat, The Silver Spear, The Curlew, Captain Horne, MacFarlane's Reel, and A Luaidh). It's audio only (and pretty good quality audio at that), and without the voice-over/commentary that's in the above video. I assume it was recorded during the same event as the above video, but it may have been recorded during a rehearsal. Either way, it's almost 8 minutes of excellent piping and drumming.

**** YES , many thanks to you Robert , Truly appreciated , that's for Sure !! ----

****** I / WE are VERY grateful to Jim Ramsay & all the People who have devoted their time to recording all these Fine Scottish Regiments. --- many videos on the web. & KZfaq to watch. ---

Stick this in your odious pipe Sturgeon

You should have had represented all the countries that Britain 🇬🇧 has conquered in the past According to the English comedian all murray ,I'm sure he's scotch lol great bands on parade 👍

Drummer salute to the Gordon

Just as well we have this to look back on, it won't be long before this is just a memory. There is nothing like the pipes and drums on the march, magnificent.

Ah the “Big Blaw” as it was referred to back then. Anyone remember Shuggy Bruce playing alto trombone on parade? Our BSM went nuts. Happy days

12:43 The Queen Mother watching on. 12 years later, the Massed Pipes and Drums that she loved so much (192 from 13 British and Commonwealth Regiments) would lead her coffin from Westminster Hall, where her lying in state had been attended by 200,000 people, to Westminster Abbey where the funeral service later took place. With muffled drums and with the muffled bells tolling in the background, that great band slow-marched 300 metres on newly-surfaced road, so that no bumps would disturb the coffin. (See kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nqxnltyW17nTmIk.html). The Beat Retreat of 1990 (which it was given to me to attend) and the Queen Mother's transfer (which I saw on TV) were the greatest Pipes and Drums spectacles I have ever seen, both organised and executed immaculately, but with humanity and love as well as gravitas. Priceless indeed, and in both cases we knew that neither we nor anybody would see the like of it again. There is not so much perfection on this Earth, but those are two examples of what we humans (and we Brits) can achieve. Prince Philip's funeral last year was another, I would say.

Dogo army

Thanks for this video

Noice!!

I never watch one of these ceremonies without a feeling of awe at the perfection of the performance - and the splendor and pomp at which the British have no equal. I also feel a sense of loss (even as an American) at the loss of many of these regiments and their bands as successive governments have tightened the belt to the point of strangulation. I wonder, thirty years after this was filmed, how many of those units survive. Thank you for posting this rather poignant reminder of what Great Britain was.

Holy crap been looking for this for years,I am in this as the dias guard damn was I ever so bloody proud that day,Horse Guards was roasting hot did this on our last day for the Royals,Gripper the Royal Scot on the other side of the dias an me got wrecked after this,thanks for this post made my night.

24:29 I've become such a fan of this march, prince charles welcome to lochaber

Thank you for sharing this. I am one of the six Calgary Highlanders who came to the UK to participate along with many other Canadians, New Zealanders, Australians, Malaysians and Gurkhas. It was a tremendous experience for all of us and I haven't been able to watch my worn out VHS copy for many years - great to see this again.
