Captain Lachlan MacPhail of Tiree
In response to a recent request. A pipe reel very popular in the Highlands of Scotland. Composed, I believe, by Peter Farquhar. If anyone has more to add on either the composer or the origin of the tune title, then please add some comments.

As a fiddler, I play this in Amaj. Clearly this is strictly not correct when played on the pipes, but I hope I'm forgiven for posting it in this key.

since the tune avoids the G it's fair to call it Amajor
