I'm looking for the tadpoles (in ABC format) for a tune called Macedonian Oro. It's on the Flook album Flatfish - the first tune in the Gentle Giant set.

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, Macedonian [H]Oro is about as specific as Irish Jig!  A search for macedonia at  J C's Tunefinder  turns up some possibles, and a search for horo will get you quite a few.

Yes I discovered this yesterday when I went a-trawling for it. I think my only chance of getting this is if someone else has the album and has transcribed the dots for themselves.

Or I could try to do it myself, but I'm not at all good at that sort of thing and it would take me forever.:-(

Baggy have you tried contacting Flook ? Sarah is real nice and very helpful, not sure there if there is a contact address on the website but you could try via the guest book?
While you are looking have you tried History Man, its my favourite at the moment (I can play it kind of) and its here
You could also ask Dave Auty via this site, he is a flook fan too and might be able to supply the dots

If you have Flatfish Bagpuss the contact details are on the back - Goodluck
I'll PM them if you haven't, just don't want to generate spam by putting the contact details up here.
