regarding the first line of this song....
'Cauld winter was howling o'er moor and o'er mountain'
as soon as he registered the identity of the song, I well recall the late John Watt, when in the right company, emitting a loud howling noise similar to a screaming gale from the Sidlaw Hills- to provide a bit of atmosphere for the performer.
