The type is "j48 4"  - should be "J48 4" - a very minor thing, but a trifle irritating!

The lower case "j" has a meaning; it is a (9/8) Jig.  No change needed.  Eric

The music seems to be a 6/8 jig

http://www.members.westnet.com.au/trevanne/rscdswa/dances/music/The_Torridon_Cross.pdf

but I am no musician! 

I thought that the rhythm of 9/8 jigs was quite distinctive - like "Strip the willow", but I had not really thought about it before now!

In the Overview for "Strip the Willow", it says
"
Also known as “Drops of Brandy”, “Strip the Widow” (unofficial).

Jig (9/8) · 40 bars · 4 couples · Longwise - 4   (Progression: 2341) 
"
but in the Overview for "Torridon Cross" it says

"Jig · 48 bars · 4 couples (3x,4x) · Longwise - 4   (Progression: 3142) "

If I am wrong and this dance is not a normal 6/8 jig, the database seems to be inconsistant in teh way it handles these things!
