74th Highlanders' Quickstep
Last month, a member here started a discussion to ask about suitable tunes for Burn's nights.

This was one of the tunes that I suggested. I was subsequently surprised to find that it wasn't already on thethession db. So here it is now.
A fine mixolydian tune - albeit perhaps not of a type that would be commonly played at sessions - at least, not at the sessions near where I live, anyway.
