    Anyone happen to know all the names of the four tunes of "D Medley" on Norman Blake's Blackberry Blossom? The fourth is the 3-part "Fisher's Hornpipe." I've learned the other 3 tunes before but can't put my finger on them and going through my collection would take forever. Help?

    I don't own that one, but listened on BarnesAndNoble and the one just before Fisher's is Year of Jubilo.

    Don't know what else is in this medley. looks like a good record, though, so I should add it to my Blake collection.

    OK - it's actually a 4-tune medley, still missing the 2nd tune...
