- Description
-
I have recently been in correspondence with Jimmy Shand Jnr, who informs me that this tune is NOT one of his father’s compositions, despite the widely held belief that it was. I have yet to discover further information on it, but I think the suggestion is that it is a trad tune the Jimmy Shand Snr arranged, rather than composed.

Okay… yes, this issue is related to #490, and strangely enough, the composer has been changed to “Annie Shand” (instead of James Shand, her husband, as suggested in #490) without further documentation, as it seems. I will close this issue as - if something else has to be done about it in the future - #490 is the issue to proceed with.
