Strathspey B Reel - Lady Lyle, Liz Carroll's (O'brien)

I searched for the term 'strathspey' and came up with this thread. Been listening to a sampler disc called The Big Squeeze, Masters of the Celtic Accordion, and that cut is on it.

Didn't know what a strathspey was so I looked it up, found this on wikipedia: "A strathspey is a type of dance tune in 4/4 time. It is similar to a hornpipe but slower and more stately, and contains many dot-cut 'snaps'."

All the music on the disc is first rate. Really nice, and the strathspey is hard to get out of your head.
