Thanks. This does look like a misspelled duplicate of the correct tune entry called David’s Brae (http://my.strathspey.org/dd/tune/376/).
That David’s Brae tune is linked with several dances and recordings, but there are also three recordings mentioning the Davie’s Burn tune with the wrong spelling.
However two of those 1970s recordings are by Jim Johnstone and it seems a little odd he would misspell his own tune on his own albums. Since they are LP and cassette tape I imagine its hard to check.
For the moment I have just added a note to the Davie’s Burn tune entry.
