Thanks, Steve and Barb. I'll print these out and see if they work.

Oh right; now that I actually bother to read the liner notes to "Skyedance"
I see that Alasdair noted that most of the tunes on that album were taken
from McDonald's collection, and from the Simon Fraser collection. I should
have checked before I attributed the tunes to Alasdair! I wonder if the 2
Harris Dances are the two from the set on Skye Dance as well. As far as I
can find out, the 2 tunes I tabbed are the only "Skye Dances" in the San
Francisco Scottish Fiddlers' repertoire. If these aren't the ones it makes
me wonder if there's a misprint on the SFSF CD's track list or something.
