You might have noticed my failure to have a song for last Monday. I have been dealing with an upturn in the economy and had some project meetings to attend in San Francisco. Roger has a variety of songs on his pdf-Minstrel site and thought this song would add some variety. I had a hard time finding a video but found one with a guitar player again.
This traditional Irish arrangement is full of HO's and PO's and is in 6/8 time. It is under the flatpicking heading and so there is a steady down-up-down to up-down-up OR d-u-d-d-u-d / d-u-d-d-u-d. Explore it. This is quite tricky! I wonder if the PO's (or pull-offs) are just released or if they are to be plucked with the fretting finger? Also the video below is not flatpicked but fingerpicked. Was this challenging for you?
