Ed. Tune Req: The Waterfall (from Northern Frisk) (23) Tune Req: 'The Waterfall' (from Northern Frisk) 17 Nov 07


Hi,

I'm looking for the dots for a tune called 'The Waterfall'. I know it from a recording by 'The Band of the Rising Sun' who inculded it on a splendid album of theirs I have called 'Setting it Right'

The sleeve notes say:
"Anyone remembering the Manchester folk scene of the late 60's will remember the Beggarmen and their fiddle player Martin Lynott, composer of the fine hornpipe, The Waterfall"

A hunt around the 'net doesn't give me the tune in any format, but suggests that it was printed in Jamie Knowles book 'Northern Frisk' Unfortunately, this out of print. Manchester Central Library's catalogue says they have a copy, but much shelf hunting has failed to unearth it.

I'd be most grateful for any help.

Thanks,

Ed
