Mike came to Burnley Folk Club last night - he's an excellent guitarist and all-round nice bloke.

Check him out on youtube playing Whitby Hornpipe and Blind Mary

Come and see us if you're in the area - we're small but friendly

He's also arranged ALL the Carolan tunes for guitar. Check out his website.

Really, really nice! Thanks for telling us about him. He's really put a lot of work into what he is doing with the tunes on his website and all. Very impressive. I am enjoying his YouTube Video page at his website.

If you click on one of the youtube videos on the link I posted, you will not only hear that one, it will cycle through them all. Truly enjoying listening in and hearing some of my very fav. of Carolan.

Many thanks for the kind comments here.

Aspiring guitarists can download the tab for all my Carolan arrangements - and if you want the full set catalogued and indexed by Excel I can provide it - see http://www.docsworkshop.force9.co.uk/carolanindex.htm
