The Celtic Mandolin - Tunes for July 2021

Hi Folks

Sorry about the late posting. I'm too old to be working on a building site, but I am, albeit one of my own making - and I can only get to a computer at weekends so things can get a bit rushed. The tunes for July are listed below. This is the last (for now) of the Aird's tunes. Later in the Autumn I'll maybe try to make a better full recording of the Aird's tunes - and put some into sets. Apart from Glencairn's Quickstep these are revised versions of a few Aird's tunes I posted early last year.

Wk 38 The Amorous Goddess
Lovely wee tune. I wonder who she was?

Wk 39 The Whipman Laddie
I love this tune. Thanks to EC for the whistle.

Wk 40 Lord Kellys Reel
Not played at the breakneck speed much of our trad music is played at. A lot of these tunes gain a little elegance by slowing things down a bit.

Wk 35 Lord Glencairn's Quickstep
March or Polka? Whatever, it's lively wee tune, as are many of these quicksteps. Thanks to my old pal Kenny for his spoons playing.
