Reinhard	Am I Right About This? (Bonnie Bessie Logan) (13)	Re: Bonnie Bessie Logan	26 Jun 23
Alexander Anderson's poem and the early recordings of John Mearns and Ian Manuel all have the same three verses. From the recordings I know of, Dougie MacLean's 1983 version on his album Craigie Dhu seems to be the first version with the verse that has the "For noo I lie wi’ this ane until the day I dee" line. I wonder if MacLean was the one who composed this verse? If not he, who else?
