Re: It's Been a While/Link to Slide Show & Music
Hello Bill and Mack: It is great to meet at the old watering hole once again. I am trying to recharge the batteries that used to enable me to transpose written music--in this case, The Adagio from Rodrigo's Concerto De Aranjuez, in key of D to play on a low A whistle. Tricky for this old geezer. New...

It's Been a While/Link to Slide Show & Music
Hello Folks: I have not been here for a while. Cannot explain why. Covid? Old age? Sloth? In any event, I prevailed upon an old friend for the use of some of his photographic images, primarily because I did not have a sufficient stock of my own stuff to go with the story I think the tune tells. Beau...

Re: Folkish/Rockish Album with a lot of Whistle on it
Hello Bill: Thank you for those kind words. If you go to YOUTUBE and enter "Yarborough and Dowling" in the search window, all of the 12 songs--actually, 11 songs and one tune--will display. Look for the distinctive 'upside down' smiling young lady and you will be able to listen to each tra...

Folkish/Rockish Album with a lot of Whistle on it
I am very happy to announce that the album I co-produced with my most excellent friend, Chad Yarborough, has been launched. I am most grateful that Chad asked me to play on this album, which contains 12 of his original songs. We used a good recording studio right here in Brooklyn. I am happy to be a...

Re: Is it OK to Post a link to your (one's) music?
Thank you. I found the Announcements and the policies contained therein. I did see the STYLE suggestion and got rid of the all caps in the subject line. So, at this time the album in on CD Baby and I-Tunes. There are whistles on every track and it is original stuff. I would like to post a link to th...

Is it OK to Post a link to your (one's) music?
Hello Board & Administrators: A while back I inadvertently posted an inquiry that veered into an area that was not appropriate for the board. (It pertained to some hand problems I was having--no more of that.) A friend and I recently released an album on 12 original songs that are not 'pure drop...

Re: Early/Sudden Onset of Arthritis of the Hands and/or Fing
Would appreciate any additional tips you may have learned recently. ... provided it doesn't amount to medical advice - Mod. At the time I posted my inquiry, I was not aware of the Board's view of stuff that touches on the medical. It was not my intent to solicit medical advice. However, I have beco...

Re: Early/Sudden Onset of Arthritis of the Hands and/or Fing
Thank you Busterbill. I meant sudden onset, not early. It came on quickly as opposed to gradually.

Early/Sudden Onset of Arthritis of the Hands and/or Fingers
Early/Sudden Onset of Arthritis of the Hands and/or Fingers: I would be interested in communicating, probably by PM, with folks who have experienced or are experiencing sudden onset and increasingly severe arthritic pain in the hands and/or fingers. I am also interested in what I call 'trigger fing...

Re: DIAGRAM OF MICHAEL BURKE DOUBE O-RING & CLEANING INSTRUC
Thank you for that link. That page sure looks like the dozen or so that are squirreled away here somewhere. I will be able to send the whistle out with a lighter heart.
Again, my thanks,

DIAGRAM OF MICHAEL BURKE DOUBE O-RING & CLEANING INSTRUCTION
I will admit to a sloppy record retention weakness. I am trading a really fine Michael Burke whistle in a key that I do not use for a whistle of, I hope, comparable quality, in a key that I do use. I want the person with whom I am doing this trade to have the diagram/instruction sheet that Michael s...
