I think it's in his manuscript book of tunes from around then. Thanks the one where his preface is scathing about playing tunes too fast- dead right I thought then and just asmuch now.... |

18 May 18 - 02:01 PM (#3925539) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Cille Mhor From: GUEST,kenny Nothing to do with "Ghille Mhor" - that was an educated guess. It's a slow air, most probably Gaelic in origin, but could be an original composition by a band member. Your best bet is to buy the CD, or the complete download from "iTunes", which has a "Digital booklet" attached. |
