So, is that you ~ k4hx1 ~ playing on YouTube? Nicely done, and the others too, if very short, just once through…

You can also catch a bit of this from this lovely recording, which I wish was still available, cassette or CD:
“Buddy MacMaster: Glencoe Hall”
Track 6: “When Mud Gets in Your Eyes”

“When Mud Gets in your Eyes” ~ composed by Bert Murray

Bert Murray was born in Aberdeen on January 26, 1913. By the age of nine, Bert began to carry the torch of fiddling passed to him by his grandfather. By age fifteen he was already performing with dance bands and as a soloist. It wasn’t long before his skill as a composer was equally recognized with eventually around 800 tunes to his credit. ~

Bert Murray died 23rd June 2003 at the age of ninety.

Nope! ~ you’re a concertina player… 😏 😀

Is there a story behind this one Kenny?

Very probably…..

I’m sure there is “c”, but we’ll maybe never know.

Hard not to play…

the seventh full measure thusly:

|DFA d^c=c|
