The Fiddler’s

The second track from the Tannahill Weaver’s begins with the strathspey “The Fiddler”,
which is followed by a jig-ified variant which the they call “The Fiddler’s (Jig)”
It really seems quite nice to me, and since its referenced here without out a link to
the notes I felt it was worth posting.

The Fiddler’s Jig

I got mixed up at first - now I’ve had a look at the sleeve and see that this is based on Donald MacLeod’s tune “The Fiddler”, but adapted by piper Iain MacInnes. I like it!
