The Good Ship Planet, Irish air on Vintage Viaten tenor guitar
I haven't done a recording with tenor guitar lead for a while, so here is a new one.
"The Good Ship Planet" is a traditional Irish air in jig time appears in O'Neill's "Music Of Ireland", where it is #435. My recording is based on a setting by Evelyn Tiffany-Castiglioni in her wonderful "Evelyn's Big Book for Mandolins for the year 2015". I play it twice through, first with accompaniment on second tenor guitar, then with mandocello and mandolin harmonies added.

Mid-Missouri M-0W mandolin (high harmony)
Suzuki MC-815 mandocello (low harmony)

Evelyn describes it as an air, and her arrangement lends itself to that. I note that it's listed as a jig at The Session. The ABC they have is very similar to Evelyn's melody part, except that she has transposed it down to F from the original G:
X: 2
T: Good Ship Planet
R: jig
M: 6/8
L: 1/8
K: Gmaj

A pleasing bit of drama when the mandolin enters. As always, thanks.
