Played relatively slowly on EV to review tonality and expression... ( that's my excuse ) - recorded directly to laptop, no effects - so intentionally quite "sterile"

0001 Red Red Rose interpretation

0005 Ball o' Kirriemuir - part 1

0015 Auld Lang Syne 2014

This was just me messing with my old fiddle, restrung with a low C (viola string), and G,D,A shifted up a notch.  I messed with Swallowtail Jig since it's something I'm currently working on, on the "proper" fiddle - so don't expect too much ! LOL   This is just to let folks hear what it sounds like tuned as a viola and with the new bridge.

0016 Testing viola-strung-fiddle with new bridge

An improvised fiddle backing to Kora's delightful harp music...

0017 Koras Harp Bills Fiddle

Cool Pink One and Bill - a stab at a play-along with Toni on the great Jay Ungar song, Ashokan Farewell.    On reflection, CPO's original was better on its own to be honest.... no matter...

0018 CPOandBilll Ashokan

A celebration of having completed the renovation and reconstruction of our house, Tullochard ( Tulloch Ard - a clan gathering place on a hill-top )

0019 Tullochard Blues

Describe this track?  Dunno - it's just a song I wrote about 12 years back..... the lyrics say it all...

0020 Mushroom Sally

For my good friend Isabel from Peru who helped me so much when I was learning Spanish, about 10 years back, "A Song with No Name", and written and sung to thank her for all her assistance....  ( OK, so, I wrote a short song for her, and now I share it to the world - awww come on what's wrong with that?   Unfortunately, over the years, we seem to have lost contact...   shame - qué lástima, y hasta la proxima, amiga mia! )
