Jack Campin Lyr ADD: Gloomy Winter's Now Awa' (21) RE: Lyr Req: Gloomy Winter's Now Awa' 27 Dec 18


The earliest form of the tune is the march of the Cordwainers' Guild, published by Aird in 1778. The strathspey form was by someone else a bit later - I have the full details in my "Embro, Embro" pages. Lord Balgonie's Favourite was the title the Gows used when they plagiarized it (presumably because Balgonie was paying).
