I discovered this tune over 40 years ago on the album 'Gabriel Valse - Bal Folk' issued on the La Chant Du Monde label in 1974. The band was led by Marc Perrone. Angel Morris started playing it and, through the good offices of Flowers & Frolics (All ex-Angel chaps), it found its way into the English music world along with another title from that album, Polka De L'Aveyron. Incidentally, it's called La Scottish on the album ~ https://www.discogs.com/Les-Toussaint-Et-Cousins-Marc-Perrone-Et-Perlinpinpin-Folk-Gabriel-Valse-Bal-Folk/master/388907
