I have often been asked to show some videos of me playing along with friends, so last Monday evening at our weekly practice session, along with fiddler, Robin and melodeon player, Kevin, the three of us being known collectively as "The Three Grumpy Old Men", I videoed ten sets of tunes from our repertoire. We perform together from time to time at local care homes and at "Sight Matters" (formerly: Manx Blind Welfare) as well as playing along with others on a Friday evening at the George Hotel in Castletown.
Set 10:
Marie's Wedding (Lewis Bridal Song; Scottish traditional)
Salmon Tails up the River (Some confusion as to whether it is Irish or EnglishTraditional)
Dark Girl Dressed in Blue (Again, some confusion at to whether this tune originates in Ireland or England)
