CURRIE'S RAMBLES. Scottish, Slow Strathspey. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'B. In the Harp and Claymore (1904), Skinner notes the tune is attributed to James Young (c. 1815-1851) of Montrose, who led the band of the Theatre Royal, Aberdeen, for many years (see also his famous melodies "Brig/Bridge o' Dee [1]" and "Dunnotar Castle").

Printed sources: Skinner (The Scottish Violinist); p. 12. Skinner (Harp and Claymore), 1904; p. 81.
