Cocking the Chafer - Pride of Holland Street (John Kirkpatrick)
« on: November 11, 2009, 02:29:17 PM »

Does anyone have the dots for this? I have found a track on Last.fm, but we can't get the twiddly bits in the B part. According to Google, there's an abc file here http://tfn.net/tuneindex/Folk2.txt, but it times out whenever I try to download it.

Looks like an index file with just the titles (no abc). I know Cocking the Chafer from Sheepskin, never heard of Pride of Holland Street. Which one has the twiddly bits?

It's the same tune, AFAIK, used for a morris dance of that name. When I googled Pride of Holland Street some years ago, all I got was a morris side in Wellington, NZ, and a local musician, Ray Chandler, playing it on John Peel's radio program. It was him I got the name from originally.

I've sent you a pm with the abc file.
