McKechnies Farewell

Saw Innes Watson play this on the Alba TV prog Horo… - i learnt it from the youtube clip of Lori Watson’s rule of 3 - it is written by the accordion player John Somerville. Great tune - quite slow.

Apologies

sorry couldnt find it last night - kept getting error message 404 when i searched for it on this site so posted it anyway

Small differences

What a coincidence! We both used the same "source" for the dots. I hear some slight differences. Could these versions be combined?

Henk, Sorry if i had come across yr original transcription i should have added mine as a variation ( I am not sure if i can do it now?) I am new to transcription so variation may be due to my limited knowledge of music theory etc. Regards.
