Can anyone with access to the actual CD check that the recording (according to the liner notes) really has two different traditional tunes called “Wee Sammy”? The popular tune by that name from Kerr’s Collection does show up in the audio but I can’t positively identify all the others. (If there is some sort of mistake in this recording then the “Wee Sammy” in the database with ID 12808 can be deleted.)

After receiving a very helpful explanatory note from Iain Boyd, I corrected the tunes for the recording (the third tune is “Sanny Speirs” by A M Volti, also in Kerr’s 4th Collection) and deleted the spurious second entry for “Wee Sammy” (tune 12808).
