The "Waltz" of "Lorraine's Waltz" does not appear.
I can see some reasoning behind it, but I think it would be nice to be able to keep the complete name, particularly if the tune in question has not been entered as ABC.
Also, for some tunes with identical names, the addition "reel" or "jig" might help to distinguish them.
I remember John and Eileen selling this album off the stage at a contra dance in upstate NY the year it came out. Something tells me Eileen Ivers doesn't have to play contra dances for 25 bucks any more. 8^)
Green Linnet 1987
A great combination of two great musicians!
Their hornpipe version of Blackberry Blossom is a lot of fun.
