MacLean's Farewell to Oban is a good one . . . . Cooney does a great version of it on "A Stone's Throw"

From Joan Ginsberg, wife of Al:

All the best

I really cannot see how a learner's progress could be harmed by a set of whistles in different keys. I think Peter's comment was directed to some of the advice given in these forums in general, not necessarily the specific advice solicited and received in this topic.

Its essential to have someone to put the s...
