Edinburgh University's Will Lamb writes about Strathspey originating in Western Isles

Will Lamb's article is in the latest Scottish Studies journal, and is entitled 'Reeling in the Strathspey'.

 Can't wait to read it - meanwhile, here's a taster in the Scotsman - Scotland on Sunday: Brian Ferguson writes, 'Strathspey fiddle' traced to Western Isles 

And it's causing a stir in The Herald, too: 'Strathspey music does not come from Strathspey' (Monday 1st July 2013)
