Peter Parson's (barndance)

Learnt off Harry Bradley's first solo album, which has been out of print. (A certain member of this site kindly sent me an original copy of it a couple of years ago.) According to the notes, Harry learnt this tune from melodeon player Peter Parson of Kinvara. I'm not sure if this is P. Parson's invention, or an old traditional tune. It will remind you of St. Anne's: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/103

A "proper" tune !

Well done, "slainte".

I can't thank you enough, Kenny. My music friends in Yorkshire and Japan never listened to this tune on Harry's recording without bursting into laughter. "Ceolachan" also loved it.
