The Red Speckled Bull скачать в хорошем качестве

The Red Speckled Bull

This tune was supposedly composed by Ranald MacAilean Og along with The Finger Lock and The Vaunting, sometime between 1682 and 1741. Some tales tell that Ranald tackled this fearsome animal in the River Skailheal, tearing off its horns. He presented the horns to MacDonald of Keppoch, who asked that the tune be given for him, which was granted. Another version was that the composer was at the Battle of Maolroy, and the tune was called The Red Speckled Bull (or Army), perhaps the description alluding to the red coats of the enemy.
