Hi Michael,

The Corrie Folk Trio and Paddy Bell did a version of this tune that I am quite fond of. Roy Williamson, the author of The Flower of Scotland sang it. It was an Elektra recording here in the states. Elektra always had a brief description of the songs in those days. 1960's. If I can find the LP I'll look it up for you.

Also try The Corries web site. There is a question and answer forum there. Gavin Browne gives the questions to his father, Rommie Browne and he answers them if he can.
