FIDDICH-SIDE LASSES, THE. AKA - "Fiddickside Lasses." Scottish, Strathspey. A Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. A double-tonic melody composed by William Marshall (1748-1833). In the opinion of Francis Collinson (1966) "Fiddich-Side Lasses" is one of Marshall's best tunes. The river Fiddich rises on the slopes of the Corriehabbie Hill some 2,500 feet above sea level, and joins the Dullan Water at Dufftown.
