Hi, Rebekah-
I found recordings by 5 Hand Reel, by Peggy Seeger and Ewan MacColl, and by Max Dunbar.
The MacColl-Seeger recording is a Smithsonian Folkways CD called Songs of Two Rebellions.
The Max Dunbar recording is Songs and Ballads of the Scottish Wars, 1290-1745.
Both links lead to album notes. I would guess that your recording was none of these three.
