Sharon Shannon - Libertango
Anyone know the name of the tune following Mortgage Burn on track 6?
Sharon Shannon - Libertango
A slightly annoying mixture of great music and slush, like a few of Sharon’s. Who really needs Albatross, or that moronic What You Make It (Da Da Da Da…) track at the end? And Mary Black recorded an altogether better rendering of Anachie Gordon than whoever does it here.
But IMO Sharon Shannon’s playing is beyond reproach where the tunes and music are foremost.
Libertango
Seems the 3 tunes on track 6 are
Hogs and Heifers / Mortgage Burn / A Birthday Polka
Sharon Shannon jig
There’s a jig on Sharon Shannon’s CD, ‘Libertango’, used as a break in ‘The Seven Rejoices of Mary’. However, it’s only one part of the tune. Does anyone know the name of the tune so that I can find it and learn it? Thanks.
