Well, the place I've gotten the greatest number of tunes from is Jack's 
ABC tunefinder.

As an aspiring fiddler, "Scottish Fiddle Music in the 18th Century" is a 
great book to read. I think it's out of print. It has numerous examples 
of  tunes, supposedly generally true to the original.

There was a seemingly aborted discussion about two days ago regarding 
"The Gow Collection of Scottish Dance Music" -- Allegation "The music 
has little to do with the Gows". Rebuttal: "The forward claims the tunes 
are largely unedited from the originals". I am very curious about this, 
since I bought the book based on this claim in the forward. Comments? US 
ISBN=0.8256.0307.2 UK ISBN=0.7119.0756.0. Now why do we need two 
different *international*standard* book numbers for the same book?
