About this Episode
Since I’m in a new House…seems like the time to play the tune I “Composed” for my friend’s Ric and Berit when they finalized some messy business with their Cabin: Squatter’s Hame
Since we did the first tune in MacKay’s book here’s the first in O’Farrell’s Pocket Companion, Humours of the Glen. Read it here: https://digital.nls.uk/87779642
And Another MacKay tune I quite liked, “The Bride has a Bonny Thing” You can see it here:

I went back to my house at the last minute to record Squatter’s Haim and just took a quick crack at this lovely Donald MacDonald tune Mary Gray.

Speaking of History, finally gonna play the clip Carrie shared with me!
Carrie’s set: “The tunes are: The Lass o’ Corrie Mill (strathspey, traditional)/Carnival March (strathspey by Gideon Stove)/Return to Milltown (reel, traditional)/The Cape Breton Fiddlers’ Welcome to the Shetland Islands (reel by Willie Hunter). Emma and I are playing fiddle, and my mom Susan is on piano.” Thanks again Carrie! I miss making music with you so much!
You can listen to the album on various streaming services and buy it straight from her website: http://www.carriedlutkowski.com/
And another tune I’ve been enjoying out of O’Farrell: Jack in the Garret
