I've been listening to the newest Dougie MacLean CD, Perthshire Amber and have completely enjoyed it. I bought it about a month ago. I finally decided to learn a couple of the tunes and have enjoyed them so much that my family keeps moving me from room to room. I suppose I've enjoyed playing them a little too much. The two tunes are Mr. & Mrs MacLean of Snaigow and Rannoch. Rannoch is a very nice strathspey. Is anyone on the list familiar with this tune or know why this tune was named Rannoch or any history at all about the tune? I did find out that there is a beautiful moor in west central Scotland named Rannoch but that's about all I know about the name. The other tune Mr. & Mrs. MacLean of Snaigow is another very nice tune that has the feeling of a slow air. A very easy tune to learn by ear. If you haven't heard either of these, you're missing a couple of very nice tunes.
