Waiting for Janet

This is the first time I have submitted a tune here and I’m a real novice with ABC but I am so impressed with this site I wanted to share the music that’s stirring my household at the moment. youngest daughter has just decided to transfer her keyboard skills on to an accordeon and THIS is her chosen first tune. It’s a lovely lilting tune that of course is splendid on the diatonic melodeon which it was written on. Hope some of you like it.

Awesome tune!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Waiting For Janet, X:3

As taught by Andy Cutting, the composer at Burwell Bash 2018

Waiting For Janet, X:4

As learnt from the Last Orders eponymous album

Waiting For Janet, X:5

Learned from this Brighde Chaimbeul/Ross Ainslie/Steven Byrnes set. It’s the second tune.

The pickup is what they use to get into it from the first tune and is not repeated. They play it ABABA before going into the third tune.
