Biografía:
The Corries were a Scottish folk group which emerged from the Scottish folk revival of the early 1960s. Although the group went through several changes of line-up in the early days, it was as the partnership of Roy Williamson (1936 - 1990) and Ronnie Browne that it is best known. The early 1970s were the Corries' finest hour.
In 1962, Roy Williamson teamed up with Bill Smith and Ron Cockburn to form the "Corrie Folk Trio". Their first performance was in the Waverley Bar in St Mary's Street, Edinburgh.

¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
Note that the verses use only the D chord through the entire verse.
It seems odd to read but if you try singing it, it works.
Watch Roy play it if you need an idea of the rhythym.
I've included both the English (Kishmul's Galley) and the Scots Gaelic
(A' Bhirlinn Bharrach) lyrics.

High on the Bennachie
On a day of days
Seaward I gazed,
Watching Kishmul's galley sailing.

Bravely 'gainst wind and tide,
They've brought her to
Neath Kishmul's walls,
Kishmul Castle, our ancient glory.
G D

A A7 D

Here's red wine and feast for heros
And harping too,
and harping too,
watching Kishmul's galley sailing
