…another version..

…some tunes immediately catch your ear, and you know you must learn it. The version on ‘A Compilation’ by Natalie MacMaster, has her playing as a March. And very catchy indeed, and I’ll learn it for our weekly session group.

It’s attributed to Niel Gow Jr., son of the great Scots composer from Perthshire.
Makes a good set with Miss Drummond of Perth strathspey, Miss Stewart of Grandtully strathspey and Miss Stewart of Grandtully reel, all by Niel Gow Snr
