A’BHRIOGAIS UALLACH
A’Bhriogais Uallach (Trad Scotland) / Raag Des (Trad Rajasthan)

A’Bhriogais Uallach is a humorous ‘puirt a beul’ (mouth music) originating in 19th Century South Lochboisdale in South Uist. It mocks ‘the trouser’ as it tells the story of getting a pair made by the tailor. The wearer found them so big and ridiculous that he disappeared inside them! Kaela is joined on this track by Dayam and Sardar singing Raag Des.
