FAILLTE SCARBA (Scarba, Salute). Scottish, Air (6/8 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Dunn and Graham record:
Faillte Scarba is given in the Revd. Patrick McDonald's Collection, but in such a mutilated condition, that unless a person knew it before, they would hardly select if for a beauty. It is perfectly wild, as much so as Scarba itself. I noted it from the singing of a Highland Lady.
Scarba is an island, in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, just north of the much larger island of Jura. Currently it is not permanently inhabited.
