   Wouldn't anyone somewhat familiar with the tradition assume Dixon's
   collection to be smallpipe tunes just by perusing the table of
   contents?

   From the titles, yes, but not by playing tunes such as Dorrington Lads
   or Black And Grey which make sense in a way that the Northumbrian
   smallpipe versions never did, because those tunes were not originally
   made for Northumbrian smallpipe chanters. Some tunes, yes indeed, but
   the majority, no. IMO anyway.
