I have some interest in Welsh dance tunes, and in particular I remember Fiona Ritchie playing purportedly Welsh tunes on her Thistle and Shamrock radio show (I can't remember exactly when this was, but I have the notion that it was in the 1980's.) These tunes were by a group that Ms. Ritchie identified, but whose spelling I do not know. Phonetically, it sounded like the group was called "Alley Grogan".
