Iain’s surname has been corrected on DD. He is the composer of the tune “Happy Sam”.

However, there is a second person Iain Gent (or should it be Ghent?) (person 1471), who composed the tune Morag’s Reel. We need to check our information on him.

SCDDB has many “persons” with similar names, it’s easy to confuse them. There are bound to be many duplicate entries and wrong attributions of tunes and dances. This needs to be looked at as a general issue; there is no reason to give special attention to this Iain Gent.

Issue withdrawn (marked ignored). Eric
