Is there an obvious repertoire of tunes for this useful variant?

If the Neil that sent me the CD of Scottish Lute Tunes from 1620 is on this list, would you please contact me off-list at j...@liestman.com?

Ever had one of those moments when you realize you've been working in the wrong direction all along? I've been working hard so that my piping would NOT suck.

[NSP] Matching tune parts.....
I was playing through Tom Clough's Bobby Shaftoe this evening and realized that the 6th part is identical in pattern to the 4th part of the highland pipe march The Barren Rocks of Aden (P/M A MacKeller c. 1843). The Barren Rocks is in D and written with a dot/cut rhythm in bars 1,2 5 and 6 and dot,cut,cut,dot in 3,4,and 7 while Shaftoe is in C and even throughout but the only note difference is in final four notes of the seventh bar where Barren Rocks sticks to the previous patterns and has AECE while Clough partially inverts what has come before to GBDB.
