Micheal
That explains it.
Sorry I can't really comment on the flute. Sounds pretty good to me, from what I recall I think the tone and colouring on lansdowne lass was better. Would need back to back to compare I think.

Nicely done. Shame the guitar is so prominant sound, level wise.

Well done

Here's a tune that has always plagued me. For some reason I got the 'bug' to work on crans today. I tried to vary the 'A' part several times, but think I may have lost the timing somewhat by doing so. Anyway, I'd like to know if the crans and triplets are coming across?

There are a few glitches here and there, mainly on the flute side of life - the fiddlers have the big advantage of not having to take breaths!

Well done, I like the set very much.
Keep up,

Jeff,

lovely set. I have to agree that the guitar, lovely as it is, seemed a little overbearing. I thought the pace and flow was great. The tone seemed to fade in and out a bit. The accents and pulse worked well. Keep on posting.

Thanks Arbo -
I finally have some time to record tunes. I find the feedback here quite helpful. Here's Christe Barry's Jigs.

Here's a Scottish jig I have been working on. Still pretty much a 'work in progress.'

Nice one Arbo. Lots of variations there. I wasn't sure about the cran in the B section. At least I think it was a cran. It worked sometimes, and sometimes seemed to stand outside the rhythm a bit.
Thanks.

Michael

Like Arbo's lastest submission, here's one I'm still learning. Not a lot of variation, but it's all I can do to just play it through without losing it. I've heard it played at sessions, and on a Flute Obsession CD. I think it's sometimes called The Maid in the Cherry Tree.

Nice one Michael. You've got some variations in there buddy. I really like the pulse you have going. I used to play this a long time ago paired with the Chicago reel afterward. I think I originally learned it from a Tommy Reck recording (The Stone in the Field?). Fair play to you! Oh, Yeah I know what you mean about the crans in the 'B' section. I am still trying to iron out the variations and the double notes which give me a ROYAL pain in the arse...

Hey all,

So I guess I will post a tune that has become my favorite lately.

Sorry for the crazy back drop but I was at work and it is the best sounding room in the joint

This tune is pretty popular in the Baltimore / DC area

Thanks John for the use of your flute once again. I miss my baby already

Michael,

Here's a quick take of Curragh. let me know if it's helpful.

Josh, did you get court martialed? Looks like you're locked up in jail there!

Now don't go filing my flute down into a shiv now. Not even the C key, even though I rarely use that one. Y'hear?
