This towering figure in folk music died this last week and nobody posted here on it? Seriously?

In my part of Canada the Scottish gaelic song and fiddle music is alive and well in Cape Breton! A music great Buddy MacMaster, uncle of Natalie, passes away on Sunday! A world reknown Celtic fiddle player!
