The Pipes and Drums of the Black Watch - The Garb of Old Gaul
If you're interested in hearing a version that tends to be performed at the trooping of the colour, you can find the link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYdU6EAQ6Cs
The Garb of Old Gaul (sometimes given as "Auld Gaul") is an 18th-century patriotic Scottish march and song about Highland soldiers during the Seven Years' War.
The music was written by General John Reid, who was a senior officer of the 42nd Regiment of Foot (The Black Watch) during the Seven Years' War. The words have traditionally been attributed to Sir Harry Erskine (1710 -1765). Robert Burns described it as "This excellent loyal Scottish song" and states that it first appeared in print in Herd's Collection of 1769. Alternative titles include The Highland Character and The Highland or 42nd Regiment's March. The tune was originally a quick march but was later rearranged as a slow march.
The tune is used by a number of Scottish military units as their regimental march. These include:
• Royal Scots Dragoon Guards
• Queen's Royal Hussars
• Scots Guards
• Royal Scots (now the 1st Battalion, The Royal Regiment of Scotland)
• Black Watch (now the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Regiment of Scotland)
• Ayrshire (Earl of Carrick's Own) Yeomanry (now "A" Squadron, Queen's Own Yeomanry)
• West Nova Scotia Regiment (Canadian Forces)
• Royal Newfoundland Regiment (Canadian Forces)
