I have a CD of Joe Hutton playing the Northumbrian pipes. Some of the tunes I already have the dots for (13) but I am having trouble finding the rest of them (31)!!
For a start,does anyone out there on Mudcatplanet have the dots or ABC's to :
"The Road to MacMerry"?? Please.

Also, "Sgurr of Eigg" and "Couper/Coupar Angus March".

The only reference I have found on the Web to these two is that there isn't anything written down! If that's the case it looks as if I've got myself a transcribing job!

regards
Jake

Maybe The Road to Macmerry is by Jim Johnstone (from Tranent, walking distance from Macmerry)? If so it might be in one of his tunebooks.

Thanks Jack but no. I should have said in my in my initial post that it's by RON PURVIS, (slaps wrist!!)
