GLEN GRANT. Scottish, Canadian; Strathspey. Canada, Cape Breton. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Composed by C. Grant in honor of the disctict. The original site of the distillery that gave birth to the famous Glen Grant label was at Dandaleith, although nowadays the whiskey is distilled in Rothes. Paul Cranford says the first Cape Breton fiddler to record the tune was Bill Lamey. Not to be confused with Skinner's "Glengrant."
