I have the 'From The Devil To A Stranger' LP by Nic Jones, and it gives notes for the tunings on some songs - but not 'The Lakes of Shilin.' I don't know the source for Nic's melody. The Alasdair Roberts version appears to be derived from Sheila Stewart's one, which she calls 'Willie Leonard', but I couldn't tell you anything about the tuning!

Sorry - this isn't a very helpful response.

Good luck...
