Lady Mary Hay's Scotch Measure - Swarbrick

I've got this on Swarb's Live at Jackson's Lane CD - Swarb's introduction is great - something along the lines of:

"Just in case you were wondering, the Scotch Measure doesn't refer to a tot of whisky, but to a type of dance now defunct, and after you've heard this, maybe you'll understand why!"

He then proceeds to play the tune at breakneck speed (yet cleanly)!
