Hi all;
Jerry O’Sullivan taught us a jig at the Piper’s Gathering this year, a new composition called The Man from Clare. Anyone have the dots or an ABC transcription available?

Thanks,
JVF

Hi…
I was working on that tune before I left for Paris. I will get back to it over the weekend and next week, and once I have it down on something (hopefully pipes) I will write it out and post it!
Cheers, Arbo.

You can’t upload to the forum, you have to upload somewhere else (Flikr, Box.net, etc) and link here.

That’s it! Thanks to everyone for responding. It’s a great tune, and sits very well on the pipes, with lots of opportunities to add “Willie Clancy style.”
