Four Up
Lester, is this an interpretation of John Cage's 2 mins 25 or do I have a technical problem? It's silent but all the other tunes play fine.

Nice jig - I didn't know this one so I've learned a new tune today, thanks!
Nicely played too - lovely steady tempo, and it sounds great on the Hohner 1R4S  (:)

I've become addicted to Lester's tune a day, it's comforting and reassuring somehow. I suppose it's how some people feel about the Archers or the shipping forecast.

Seriously - Lester, you re-affirm many of the reasons I got into this music in the first place.

Have no idea where I got it from but it is an amazing little tune when you consider the A music is played on just two buttons.

Oh! and thank you  (:)

Your ABC version has a low F♯ but I think you're playing A instead; if you played the F♯ it would be three buttons.
Also with a range of only an octave (as you play it) it's a natural pipe tune.

The ABC is what I learned from prior to the 'folk process'   ;)
