Gallus Moll Lyr Req: By the Lochside + Lochanside (28) RE: Lyr Req: Lochanside 28 Sep 17

PM John (Jock) McLellan was from Dunoon, composed many tunes including Lochanside (I believe about the loch beside the High Road to Sandbank). John McLellan also wrote songs and poems, he composed words to go with the Lochanside tune.
And he played piano, fiddle as well as pipes. And was an artist, he painted - -- multi talented.
He fought in both the Boer War and WWI (as the titles of a number of his compositions will illustrate)

PM J A Maclellan was based in Edinburgh castle a bit later than John Mclellan, taught piping - think he also composed.

and I think GS Mc or MacLennan is a different person - -- -
