GUEST,Terry McDonald The Massacre of Glencoe—Favorite Version (102* d) RE: The Massacre of Glencoe—Favorite Version 25 Mar 07


Jim McLean - nice to hear from the writer! I genuinely thought it had been written by Alistair MacDonald and even said so in a thread about it in 2003. Oops!

My only criticism (or perhaps 'comment) is that it doesn't sound like a 'traditional' or 'folk' song - the chords are just too modern. Everyone likes it, though, and I'm not the only person to sing it at the folk club I go to each Thursday. Interestingly, the other singer, uses just three chords. What sequence did you use when you wrote it?
