BILLIACLETT. AKA and see "Robbie Tampson's Smiddie," "Robbie Thompson's Strathspey." Shetland, Reel. Shetland, Fetlar. The tune, "'Billiaclett' (or 'Baljaclett', after a place on Ronas Hill in Mainland Shetland), turns out to be a variant of the Scottish tune 'Robbie Thompson's Strathspey'" (Cooke, 1986). From the island of Fetlar in the Shetlands, and the playing of octogenerian (in the 1980's) John Robertson.
