  • Gordon Jelly
    Drum Major Gordon Jelly by Allan Cha5o, 1994 Gordon Jelly in 1929, his first year with the Dalzell Highland Pipe Band, age fourteen. In 1915, Alexander Gordon Hamilton Jelly was born in the town of Motherwell, Lanarkshire, Scotland. In his early years he developed a keen interest in music, and at the age of twelve, while aFending the local 5th Company of The Boys Brigade, it was only natural that he was aFracted to their pipe band, and in parHcular, to the snare drummers. LiFle did the pipe band world know that this was the start of a foundaHon that was to become part of the history and the development of pipe band drumming. So it was in 1927 that Gordon decided he wanted to learn to play the snare drum. What beFer start could a keen young lad have? The BaFalion pipe band drummers were being tutored by the famous Jimmy Catherwood, who at the Hme was the Drum Corporal of the Dalzell Highland Pipe Band. This band, under Pipe Major William Jack and Leading Drummer Willie Craig, was making a name for itself in ScoSsh Open Grade CompeHHons. Dalzell Highland was formed when a group of piping enthusiasts met in 1910 on the "Old Calder Brig" in the steel town of Motherwell. Each member agreed to contribute five shillings a week - a considerable sum in those days - towards the band for the purchase of uniforms and instruments. The first pracHces were held outdoors on the banks of the River Calder. The band eventually gained the support of several generous "honorary members," one of whom was David Colville of the Dalzell Steel and Iron Works.
