I am looking for the dots (in abc format) of a tune which I think is called Sevens and is on the Flook album Flatfish.

Anyone help?

No song of that title is listed as a track....... Now what? (It appears that Sevens is a band name......)

Reposted under correct name of Macedonian Oro. I don't know where I got the idea it was called sevens - other than the unusual time signature.

OK. Now, the problem is that an Oro is just a type of tune......go here (RR Tunebook) and see if any of the ones listed are correct........(I'm trying, bagpuss!)

Hmmmm doesn't seem to be any of those. There was one I thought may be in the correct time sig (7/8?) but the ABC file didnt work and my sight reading it slow and laborious at the moment, so I couldnt tell if it was right.

My best bet may be someone who has the album and has transcribed it themselves.

Thanks for trying
