Description

The Finlayson recording lists the tune as The Infare'' on the database, but the tune seems identical (to my ear) to Will Ye Go And Marry Ketty’’ which is listed for the other recording, if perhaps in a different key. Should these be reconciled?

Thanks Rod. Indeed both the Tradition Tune Archive and John Chambers tune finder have these as aliases: https://tunearch.org/wiki/Infare_(The), https://tunearch.org/wiki/Marry_Ketty and http://john-chambers.us/~jc/cgi/abc/get.cgi?F=ABC&U=/~jc/music/abc/mirror/AnselmLingnau/Infare_Will_Ye_Go_and_Marry_Ketty_AL.abc&X=1002&T=INFAREWILLYEGOANDMARRYKETTY.

The latter seems to have got a transcription of the score via Anselm so I will give him a chance to comment before trying to merge these two entries.
