"Haughs"

Re: Looking for lyrics!

Haugh: a low-lying meadow in a river valley.

Cromdale: the last battle of the Jacobite rebellion - fought on the low-lying meadows (haughs) of Speyside ...

Haugh: secondary definition.

When you're at a session, a "haugh" is what you get into when someone launches into a tune that you were just about to play yourself ....

We live and learn, Ron!

So, it's the bovine answer to haggis, then?

Thanks a lot, this all has really been helpful!
(also, blame Amazon.com for my spelling of Haughs.... I copied & pasted the song title....)

In passing....I used to love the '5 Hand Reel' arrangement of the 'Haugh's O'Cromdale' on their 'For A'That' album in 1977 when they used ''Tralee Gaol' as the interval tune. Stirring stuff..
