BRIDE, THE. AKA - "Phit deubh." Scottish, Reel (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Glen (1891) finds the earliest appearance of the tune in print in Angus Cumming's A Collection of Strathspey or Old Highland Reels (1780, p. 9). Michael Newton, writing in his blog "The Origins of the Strathspey: A Rebuttal" [1] believes the correct Scots Gaelic title of Cumming's “Phit deubh" should be "A’ phit dhubh."
