Thread Name: Lyr Add: The Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond
Sandy:
You can find three differing sets of words for Loch Lomond on the DT database, here here and here: unless, of course, you'd like some practice in searching the database; in which case, go to the box labelled Digitrad and Forum Search at the top left of the page and type in "loch lomond".
There is a midi file of the tune that you can listen to, but I can't help you with the written music at the moment. I'm sure someone else will be able to point you the right way. I failed miserably to find it at the Levy site: could you perhaps give us a more specific URL, Alice?
The song, incidentally, is attributed to Lady Scott (née Alicia Spottiswoode), 1810-1900.
Sheila: Hamish Henderson is alive and kicking, and celebrated his 80th Birthday last November. Greentrax will be releasing a CD of the concert in the spring.
