The Rambling Sailor

Played often in Sydney. This is a flute setting transcribed direct from a minidisc recording.

Bar 22 of the sheetmusic should be |AcGE FEDG|

This is the way Paddy O'Brien had it on his recording with Seamus Connolly. In O'Neill, it's in D major, so maybe O'Brien "adjusted" it for the box.
