"Pa Paddy O'Sullivan's" ~ ? :-/

I'm positive I know this by another name, and it may already be here in some form. This is also played down lower in D ~

N-nice t-tune

Yea! agree its a nice tune. I'm wanting to finish it by using the last 4 bars of the 'A' music as the last 4 bars of the 'B' music on the repeat. And I do like it in D.

Hetty, it's even sweeter in C... ;-)

# Posted on April 11th 2008 by ceolachan

Thanks for that 'c'. I've played on my C/C# Prematona. It's a fairly rich box with the bass coupler on. very throaty. A little sweeter without. I think I prefer the throaty version. D is a more user friendly key for my wife to play in however. But you have sparked off an idea of building a set starting with this and moving onto other keys. C to Dminor might be a good start. any suggested polkas in D minor?
