Been using it for a while: it often comes up as a potential source if you Google the name of a tune you want the dots for.

What happened to the site that diagrammed the group relationships of tunes?

I can't find it anymore.

Is this the site you meant ?

Tried making a blue clicky, but no. so maybe copy and paste, and we'll be right back after this commercial, thank you for your attention.

Thanks, but that's not it.

The site I'm thinking of provided a small diagram on the right of the screen showing tunes closely related to the one looked up.

I thought abcnotation.com was the site Lighter was referring to. But I can't make it display those diagrams now. Maybe it depends on your browser.

OK. It does work on both Bing and Firefox.

The home page has no link to the diagrams, but one pops up automatically when you choose a tune.

Thanks!

It only shows the diagram if the tune has any relatives.
