SANDY CAMERON. Scottish, Canadian; (Pipe) Reel (whole and cut time). Canada, Cape Breton. A Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Cranford/Holland): AABCCD. This bagpipe tune is old standard and in Cape Breton is often played following "Dusky Meadow" (a strathspey composed by Donald MacLellan) in imitation of the classic recording of the two tunes by Bill Lamey (1914-1991) and Joe MacLean (Dunlay & Greenberg, Dunlay & Reich). It was one of the most popular Cape Breton 78 RPM disks, according to Paul Cranford, who points attention to “pianist Lila Hashem’s well-timed glissandos at the end of phrases.” Cape Breton piper Barry Shears (1995) finds this reel associated with the Scottish composer Alex Cameron (1848-1923), from a renowned piping family. See the pipe reel "Sandy Cameron's Rant," which may be an older version of the reel, but with enough differences to warrant a separate entry.
