DESCRIPTION:
Hello, this is a lovely traditional Scottish Air called "Heather Island" that I learned from Jim Tozier. Heather Island is known as (from Wiki) : Eilean Fraoch or Fraoch Eilean, which provides an index for islands in Scotland with this and similar names. Literally meaning "heather island" in Scottish Gaelic, it is a common Scottish island name.

"Eilean Fraoch" is also a nickname for the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides and "Fraoch Eilean" was the war-cry of Clan MacNaughton.[1] The coat of arms of the current chief of Clan Donald includes the motto "Fraoch Eilean" which is set "on a compartment of rocks and heather proper issuant from the waves".[2]

Fraoch Eilean has the same meaning in English as Linga or Lingay, island names of Norse derivation, also commonly found in Scotland.
