Ode to John Smeaton was written by
Stuart McGuinness. Like everyone else, I received the ode by email. He went on to my site and left a message. He said he took it from The Seven Men of Knoydart. I googled it and sure enough, there it wss. The tune they used to the original was a variant of
Johnson’s Motor Car – although not the one I’m familiar with. I gave it the tune – The Foggy Dew. I love the Ode!!
