Re: Deliriously Happy
Beautiful recording. A tribute to Foley’s grandmother and recorded on her fiddle tuned to B. Lovely pace and backing.
Re: Deliriously Happy
Hi “dunnp”. I corrected a few of the missing links by simple adding “The” in front of the title posted. Seem to be OK now. Might the 2nd reel track #7 be “The Green Fields Of Glentown” ?
Re: Deliriously Happy
Thanks Kenny. And it should be Green Fields.
Re: Deliriously Happy
Anybody know another name for De Dannan’s. I’m familiar with the tune from one of De Dannan’s recordings and I’m sure it has been in a video doing the rounds on Facebook of late but can’t think I’d it has another title.
Re: Deliriously Happy
O’Malleys is Behind the Bush in Parkanna I think or Ditch and it has other titles as well maybe?
Re: Deliriously Happy
What does it mean to tune the fiddle to B?
Re: Deliriously Happy
maybe tuning every string down a half step? (and then playing using C fingering)
Re: Deliriously Happy
I’d say a third (“from D down to B”: GDAE → EBF#C#).
