03 Dec 17 - 08:58 PM (#3892112) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Ottawa Valley Set From: meself I believe it's named for Murray River in PEI. Having said that, I'm not sure where I got that impression - but I'll defend it to the death. Speaking of which - my fiddling niece and I have had a twenty-year argument about whether the title is Murray River (her) or Murray River Bridge (me). I might have gotten that from the track listing on one of Howie MacDonald's tapes. |
