Right. I was just listening to the CD in the car and
was struck by the similarities.

Thanks for the transcription. Good job.

Just about the same is *really* stretching it.

 Is the American fiddle tune Betsy (Henry Reed, Alan Jabbour,
 et. al.) just about the same as the pipe march Greenwoodside?
 Where might we hear it? Do you have ABCs?

My ABCification of the transcription at the Library of Congress
site; I left out a few upward slides and pitchbends that ABC can't
represent...
