Tattie Bogle	Origins: Loch Tay Boat Song info (82* d)	RE: Origins: Loch Tay Boat Song info	01 Sep 18
Yes, it does not in fact say that there were ever Gaelic words, more that the MELODY came from an old Gaelic tune. Looks like the link I provided in 2009 no longer works, so here is a further one, obit for Harold Boulton, who was apparently involved in many different things! Harold Boulton I think I first heard this song on the North Sea Gas CD, Schiehallion: also a good version. By the way, anyone who got a copy of "Songs of the North Vol 111" is very lucky! (leaving aside any argument about what was done with the songs by our forebears!) Rare as hens' teeth! I have vols 1 and 11 but not 111.
