Thread Name: Lyr/Chords Req: The Wild Geese / Norland Wind
Subject: Tune Add: THE WILD GEESE / NORLAND WIND
MMario, I'm afraid the ABC from view source is not OK - Bb notes became two B notes in the process. But I think I found my error - some "less than" symbols in the ABC created havoc with the HTML tags. So, I've re-written the ABC file to be more Mudcat HTML friendly. Hopefully this works - anyway, here goes:

X:1
T:I saw the wild geese flee
T:Norland Wind
C:words: Violet Jacob/music: Jim Reid
S:Battlefield Band - "Rain, Hail or Shine"
H:Originally a poem entitled "The Wild Geese", written in 1915 by Angus poet Violet Jacob. Set to music by Jim Reid.

D:Battlefield Band - "Rain, Hail or Shine" (Temple Records COMD 2074)
D:Jim Reid - "I Saw the Wild Geese Flee" (Springthyme SPRCD 1015)

M:6/8
L:1/8
Q:1/4=80
