CAPTAIN MACKENZIE [3]. Scottish (?), English; Reel (cut time). A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). See also "Captain McKenzie (2)/Captain McKenzie's Strathspey" which is either a version of this tune (or vice-versa) or a strathspey setting in mixolydian mode of the same tune. The second strains differ more than do the first.
