I heard a tune that must have been this one, exactly once, I think from Robin Kynoch. I then went home and attempted to reconstruct it. I'll post what I came up with under the title "Bad Memory of Conlon's".

this is clearly a version of the Scottish tune, written by William MacPherson, called Brumley Brae
