The Man from Clare

Hi all;
Jerry O'Sullivan taught us a jig at the Piper's Gathering this year, a new composition called The Man from Clare. Anyone have the dots or an ABC transcription available?

Thanks,
JVF

Hi....
I was working on that tune before I left for Paris. I will get back to it over the weekend and next week, and once I have it down on something (hopefully pipes) I will write it out and post it!
Cheers, Arbo.

Tell us something.: I like pipes and other things involving music, like music and pipes. Reeds are an enigma. Though I can make violins, I can not make a reed.

You can't upload to the forum, you have to upload somewhere else (Flikr, Box.net, etc) and link here.

That's it! Thanks to everyone for responding. It's a great tune, and sits very well on the pipes, with lots of opportunities to add "Willie Clancy style."
