"High Road to Linton", in Gaelic, "An Bóthar Mór go Linton" is a Scottish, Shetland, Irish, English and Canadian Reel or Fling in A Major (Breathnach, Cranitch), A Major/Mixolydian (Perlman, Songer, Surenne) or A Mixolydian (Mallinson). The parts are played AB (Breathnach, Cranitch, Surenne), ABB (Gow, Carlin), AABB (Athole, Gow/Repository, S. Johnson, Honeyman, Hunter, Kerr, Lowe, Neil, Skye, Williamson), AABBCC (Mallinson) or AABBCCDD (Martin, Perlman, Songer). Linton is a small town in the Borders region of Scotland and England, strategically located in the center of lowland Scotland. It was a major hub for the old drove-road network of the cattle trade; a Scottish/English version of an old-west style cattle town. It was printed in Aird's Selection of Scotch, English, Irish and Foreign Airs, vol. 4 (1796), Breathnach's CRÉ III (1985), Carlin's The Gow Collection (1986), Cranitch's Irish Fiddle Book (1996), Duff's Collection of Strathspey Reels &c.
