Heeeeeey, isn't this the tune that sometimes is paired up with Devil in the Kitchen at the same time?!

Cheers,

Too arpeggiated and not enough melody for my liking.

Let me restate or something!

I've seen about two or so times where Devil in the Kitchen [Strathspey] is played WITH this tune, Dancing Feet most likely being the harmony or second part or something, but yeah, it doesn't sound THAT great together but it works out, but then again, I'd have to hear it live instead of in MIDI format. Yes, school.

Cheers,
Armand

not to your liking?
I wouldn't find it too attractive to read either or hear in this context, but luckily I first heard it on a Tannahill Weavers' album (+ also on Gerald Trimble(???!!!)'s cistern album?): It's absolutely elecrifying to hear on the scotspipes at high speed!
hear that and dance!

Gerry on the cistern ?

Glad I never heard that !
Composed by G.S.McLennan. Glasgow fiddler Chris Miller wrote another 2 parts to it, but they never really caught on.

Kenny, if you search ebay for "cittern", it'll ask if you meant "cistern" - perhaps it does this, anticipating that a lot of bum notes are going to be played.... ;-)
