I don't know about the strathspeys, but the first of the reels was Brenda Stubbert's. And that male fiddler is the ablest disco dancer since Elvis.

That's a really common strathspey, but I didn't have a name for it. Bit of searching suggests it's called Jessie Smith, and comes from the Athole Collection. For dots, try Folktunefinder.com or maybe thesession.org.

Yes, it's Jessie Smith. There are dots and TAB on Nigel Gatherer's site here.

Thanks very much.

Going to drink a drop of Talisker to your heath !
