Played It Today!

Good man! I was playing this tune an hour or two ago on a bamboo G flute. I am thinking about recording it for the 3rd Wooden Flute CD. This is more or less as I learned it from Rev. Gary himself over 20 years ago, but I never had a name for it.

You are very welcome - my good deed for the day!

Don't suppose he was 'The Rev' way back then?

Gold In Every Pocket But Mine Own

This is just the best titled-tune ever, I wish I'd thought of it.
The tune is quite nice as well!
