Hi,

I just finished transcribing part of another great session recording... can anyone help ID the jigs below? The lead instrument on the recording was a fiddle, doublestops and improvisation all over the shop, so there are places where I may not be exactly true to the documented melody...

I thought my use of the 'preview' button had made me wise to this message board's trick (i.e. bug) of eating the first leading space of any given line... but I see that I managed to get it wrong anyway for tunes 2 and 3.

For those tunes, the first stave of each has the dots above the stave appearing one character left from where they should be. Doh!

Being a seasoned music reader, I find tab very confusing. However, I managed to recognise these as:

1. The Rose Among the Heather
2. The Mug of Brown Ale
3. The Lilting Banshee
