Here is my take on this  J. Scott Skinner Strathspey.

Laird of Drumblair

This is a track from the new CD 'Band of Two' by Banna de dhá, the duo of fiddler Tom Morley and DADGAD guitarist Hazel Ketchum. The Irish phrase (pronounced 'bonna de gaw') makes reference to the 'banding together' of their two instruments, fiddle &amp; guitar. This tune is usually played as a hornpipe but here the duo give it a moody interpretation.

This is a tune I wrote back in summer of 2012 and originally named it Albert's Slide because I could not think of a title at the time.I am now renaming it Rich Dissmoore in honour fo Rich's memory.  I believe in my mind and heart this tune represents Rich's tenacity for life, friendship, and music.  Never giving up and at times, I'm sure, trudging through his obstacles.Please download if you like.AJ

Here's a bit of what I've been able to do so far.

Geese In The Bog

This podcast is great. I love the music. There&#39;s only one thing that I don&#39;t like and that is the intonation and tone in a couple of the pieces.  

For the player: Practice playing in tune. To improve your tone, try to play with your bow perpendicular to the strings. 

Other than these couple of minor problems, I would recommend this podcast to anyone. Thank you for providing such excellent music!

Going to Milwaukee

Anchorchan Strathspey

Man of the House

This is a slip jig in D that I ran across in the County Champaigne collection that I have really taken a liking to, and it is a great tune to use to experiment with ornamentation and bowing variations.

I think this medley is from Michael Coleman.
