MISS GREY OF CARSE [2]. AKA and see "Dean Bridge of Edinburgh (The). Scottish, Strathspey. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The piece was thought to have been originally written and published by Archibald "Airchie" Allan (d. 1831) under this title (though unlikely, says Alburger), and compilers "at least since the time of Skinner" have linked it with "Dean Brig o'Edinburgh," however, Alburger (1983) maintains they have nothing in common. Allan is said to have played in Nathaniel Gow's band for a time, and his playing was characterized by Alexander Lowson as "clean and neat, and characterized by immense power, especially in strathspeys" (Emmerson, 1971).
