Hobbit Reel

This tune was written for then Adelaide flute player Elaine Jeffreys back in 1978 by Jerry Everard - a former member of Mucky Duck Bush Band in Perth and now of Full Circle in Canberra. It was used for many years as a 'beginners' reel by the Adelaide Celtic Music Club.

Good tune, especially if you insert a repeat of bars 1 and 2 after bar 4 to make it an even 8-bar A part.

Oops - thanks for pointing that out - I left out two bars in the A part - here is the 'correct' version which should now scan better - Cheers

I have updated the abc notation on the main tune to reflect the version above. Enjoy ;-)
