Wondering if anyone knows this tune? By Addie Harper Senior of the Wick Ceilidh Band: a friend is keen to get hold of it. He and I have both trawled music websites, iTunes, YouTube, Addie Harper's own website and goodness knows where else with no luck: it's not on any of Addie's recordings listed on the site either. My friend says it usually follows the tune "Murdo's Wedding" - which IS on YouTube but followed by other pipe tunes.
Any help appreciated, whether dots, ABC or soundfile!

You could try asking on the Caithness.org message board.

It's a tune rather than a song: thanks for the ideas: I have actually had a very prompt response from the people who maintain the Addie Harper website: seems he did not write it but used to play it. It bears some resemblance to the tune of "The Mill, Mill-O".
