Jerusalem Ridge
A request for oraghalm. I normaly notate tunes using Finale and am fairly new to ABC and the ABC for this tune did not want to play back correctly on my computer, some of the timing does not match the notation, does anybody else have this problem with ABC?. Anyway I checked the ABC against the sheetmusic
and I am sure its right.This setting is Kevin Burke's from 'Up Close' and the tune was composed by Bill Munroe.

A few missing bars
Sorry, on my posting of Jerusalem Ridge I missed out the first few bars, here they are
A3cAGED|E3GEDCD|ECDCA,4CB,A,3
I dont know if Bill Munroe playes these bars but they are definately in Kevin Burkes version.

With tons of respect to The Kevin, the best Irish-ized version of this tune I've heard is from Joel Mabus, played on guitar on his Faries and Fools album. He does it after a satirical song about a contra fiddler who succombs to the bluegrass bug. He calls it Planxty William Monroe.

Here's a transcription based on Mark O'Connor's "Heroes" CD, with Kenny Baker on the track. Nothing Irish trad about it--but a great tune.
