| Item Description | This accompaniment appears in the scrapbook of tunes and accompaniments that Skinner presented to Mrs Barclay of The Gordon Arms Hotel, Keith, after his bankruptcy. Skinner keeps his accompaniments very simple indeed. This perhaps goes back to his childhood experience of accompanying Peter Milne on the cello. Note how this accompaniment is dedicated to Mrs Barclay. See JSS0795 and JSS0850 for the strathspey, Good Morning Mrs Barclay. |
