Cottesloe Beach

Another tune off the McGoldrick album - Wired.
I have good reason to presume that this relates to the beach near where I live here in Perth (West Oz).

Re: Cottesloe Beach

What a pleasant surprise to stumble upon this! Yes, for anyone wondering, Cottesloe Beach is one of the most highly regarded beaches in Perth, Western Australia. Wikipedia even goes so far as to call it iconic!

Thanks for transcribing it all those years ago, Donough. For anyone who wants to hear the tune, here it is in a set of Forgotten Daze / Cottesloe Beach / The Honesty Bar :
