Comments closed2 slow jigs; one of which is relevant to Melodeon.net’s theme of the month for April 2013, ‘Trip to…’ tunes! Out on the Ocean is a traditional Irish jig; Trip to Cheltenham was written by John Shepherd, who was then with the Albion Band (in about 1990 I think). Played on a Castagnari Mory in D/G with semi-unisonoric basses.
