However, the version I play is closer to the Neil Gow one, which was published in the Skye Collection of 1887, as played here by master Fiddler Paul Anderson who credits William Marshall as the composer. Traditional Tune Archive: Lady Madelina Sinclair As usual, the Session.org site has a few different versions of this tune: Lady Madelina Sinclair Not surprising really that so many people wanted to be remembered for, or at leat associated with, such a great tune.
