the forgotten songs that go with them. Includes many song tunes in bagpipe
notation as well as fiddle versions and has chords for accompanists. Dougie
Pincock has written great bagpipe settings for the songs and Susie Petrov
and Christine Martin have collected and co-ordinated the Gaelic, Scots and
American versions to make this a stimulating collection for all musicians. A
