You're right :) But it does tell you about MacLeod if you don't know of him. He would feature on any shortlist of Scots music greats of the 20th century. The CD of the old 78s is great. Jean's Reel is too modern a composition to feature. One of my abiding memories is of going into the Mishnish in Tobermory (MacLeod's hotel) for a tune many years ago. Someone started Jean's Reel, and I heard a button box wheezing into life at my back. The Man Himself had quietly slipped in at the back of the session :) Derek Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
