i was gonna submit this seeing as i FOUND it! 🙁 😏

hmph

I take it that the slide is one of the ‘gan ainm’ tunes of track 17? Let me know which one and I’ll try to get Red Crow to add the name so the link is made, though it is just as likely to link to the reel. 😏

Besides,I didn’t like your transcription ~ 😛 Actually, I was worried we’d be subjected to another of your compositions if you built up credit. Only kidding, I think? 😏 😀 But, if you send me a bunch of ABCs for your compositions and I happen to like one, I’ll add it and you’re home free… Now for the real question, can you trust me with your babies?

I’d transcribed the Sliabh Notes tunes ages back and was sure I’d already submitted them. However, it is a particularly nice setting, and more folks are likely to have that recording than the “Echoes of Erin”… Mind you, I’d like to hear what they do with it. So, since you didn’t mention it ~ WHO ARE THE MUSICIANS?

But, if it’s a pirated copy you’ve got, and you don’t actually have the notes for it - - - - 🙁 GRRRRRR!
