Out on the Ocean in G and A

Post by ausdag »

Due to popular demand....NOT!!! I went ahead and recorded 'Out on the Ocean' played in the key of A but without the aid of a G# key......

Key of A -

Thanks Guys. I still have a bit of a timing issue, particularly with my bottom hand, but I've been doing a lot of work with the metronome lately so hopefully that will improve things.

Cheers,

Very nice, but the A version could do with the odd G# :wink:

Well done, thanks for posting those. I'd tried to learn that one a year ago, when I was first getting going on the pipes but didn't do too well...may have to dust it off and try again. :)

Thanks Gary - I know what you mean. This one's (G version) been in my repertoir for the past 5 or so years and the A one about 3, and I'm just getting the hang of it. I've actually had a real fondness for this tune because it was one of the first sets I'd heard the pipes on when I bought my first Planxty album back in 1985 - The Woman I Loved so Well.

Cheers,

In more ways than one - great tunes, great songs, great arrangements of great tunes and great songs, and to top it off, one of the greatest album covers I've ever seen - one must own the LP version to fully appreciate it.

Yes, I used to own it and Planxty's other records many years ago. But when I sold my turntable, I suddenly had a collection of great albums that I could never listen too, so I gave them away to those who still listen to them today. I regret it just a tad, but, I feel great music ought to be listened to, and not collecting dust in a closet.

When we were little, we used to put records on a Sunbeam Mix Master turntable and gently hold a sewing needle on the grooves. Give it a bit of a spin and music could be heard coming from the needle. Sold your turntable? Git yerself a Sunbeam Mix Master :D

... I hadn't thought of that, too bad I don't have any albums, except my prized Beatles collectables, to apply this youthful technology to. I wonder how a knitting needle would work on those Beatles albums.... :D
