Jimie Ritchie's Jig
Jimmy was a pipe band drumming teacher, originally from Northern Ireland, but lived in South Australia for many years. I learnt the drums from him in the 70s, and sadly he died a some years ago. The first two parts of this tune were written by Ian Patterson a brilliant piper living in Adelaide, and I wrote the last two parts.

I could imagine drumming in a pipe band playing this tune. Looking forward to learning it on the box.
