Pere, this is exactly why I put up my tune search site. The text searching on thesession is too literal. It is looking for text "word" matches, and doesn't allow for any variation. My search site does some fuzzy matching, and it correctly identifies both tunes. It works best if you put in 4-8 bars (from anywhere in the tune).
I just gave it a bookmark.
Pete, my friend really got a kick out of your tee shirts.
Maybe I'll buy her one.
She also wants to learn janesjigs from the Maggie's Favourite mp3. I'll give it another listen today & try to suss it out.
Cheers
Thanks Rev. I can't wait to try your search engine. I've never had much luck with the search feature here, but I sometimes run the same search on google for tunes on this site.
Here's one that I often use. Not as many listings as the session, but it works. I imagine most people here are already familiar with it. http://tunedb.woodenflute.com/
You've ruined me Pete! My friend keeps asking, "can't you just take the recording & push some magic button & have the sheet music shoot out?" To which I always say,
"There is no magic button - no shortcuts. You listen to the tune & suss it out!""Magic BUTTON?!"
She'll get a good round laugh on this one .
Thank you, you are generous.
One by Will, eh?
We'll be playing them. Thanks Will
Glad you folks like the search engine! Don't forget to read the instructions, because it does some more advanced things that might not be intuitive, like transposition searches, etc.
Identify two jigs
Identify two jigs
It's amazing how I try to find tunes using the searcher on this site over and over again with no success...

Re: Identify two jigs
The first jig is the last and second parts of the Battering Ram, I'm not sure about the second one.

Second one is the Lonesome/Maguire's, etc:

Re: Identify two jigs
Ah thanks a lot Rev. I was sure I had read about a tune searcher made by a thesession member but I didn't know the address. I'll always use it now.

Re: Identify two jigs
If you forget the address (but can remember who made it), it's linked in my profile page too... Hope it's of some help!

Hey Rev... just tried out your abc searcher on about 6 tunes i've been looking for. Found all of them. Great stuff!
