Anyone who wants to offer suggestions should contact her here Hey, you might get a mention on the next CD! I'd be grateful if you'd also post suggestions here. Ed (listening to 'Band of the Rising Sun' who play several wonderful English fiddle tunes) |

I can also recommend these collections: South Riding Tunebooks, Tunes, Songs and Dances from the 1798 manuscript of Joshua Jackson and Lincolnshire Collections Vol.1: The Joshua Gibbons Manuscript Malcolm |
