Thread Name: Origins: Shady Grove - what verses do you use?
Subject: RE: Shady Grove
Hi folks I play Shady Grove on the Highland Pipes and it fits very nicely.The version I play is the old time version I think,which is pentatonic in the A music but not in the B.The B part goes one note above the range of the pipes so I've had to do a bit of re-arrangement.Old Joe Clark also goes well, and I play them as a set.

PS I think my interpretation is strongly influanced by Fairports Matty Groves.
