"Edmund MacKenzie of Plockton" was one of them! I can't really see much to recommend it, but perhaps I'm missing something. Mind you, it's easily learned in a few minutes, so it may be a good tuition tune - I'm always on the lookout for those. I've just come back from the Tinto summer school, which was wonderful in many ways. It's a residential school for children, and it was remarkable to spend a week with so many talented young people playing traditional music. I also learned a few new tunes, so it was worthwhile for me too! I'll discuss them later. Part of the week involved going to a Fine Friday concert. Boy, they're a terrific band and they were cooking that night. I mean musically. -- Nigel Gatherer, Crieff, Scotland mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
