I'll have a go - (with limited abc skills and no flute at hand) -
I'd say that's an Edor version of The Bag of Spuds.

Kevin Crawford does the Edor version on a Bb flute, making it really low (and cool).

I originally learned the tune in Ador, like thusly:

Hi,
thanks for the quick answer. You are absolutely right. I just found it myself while going through the tracks of Crawford's album.

Remains the question:

How do you find transposed versions of a tune? Is there a tool that you can use? Obviously putting in a transposed version as I did won't lead you far with the regular tune-finders, thesession.org etc..

Thanksalot,
