Any of you good folk out there have any idea what sort of thing them boys might have been playing in a western saloon at about the turn of the century (18th 19th rather than 19th 20th) look forwards to hearing your suggestions.

Stuff from the Beggar's Opera also comes to mind. Does that get you started? Good Luck, soddy |

Have fun! katlaughing |
