    Utter crap! The lyrics were written by Robert Tannahill in 1797 and called the "Braes of Balquhidder". The very song that the McPeakes disgracefully plagiarized, and claimed to have written! Shame on them!

    (They were thrown out of court when the family tried to claim royalties from the Corries & others, with the Judge saying: "If Tannahill were still alive, I'd order you to pay him Royalties!" )

    And as Ulster-Scots, they were "thievin' frae their ain tae!"

  • I'm looking for a rendition of this song for my Grandmother who turns 100 years old on May 30th. She married an Irishman named Lacey. I wanted to get a version of this song on guitar and performed with a genuine "feeling'", and put it to music for her celebration. This is very, very good. I hope you don't mind if I steal alot of your performance for the one I'll be peforming for her. This is very close to what I'm looking for. Thank you so much. Your talent is very appreciated.
