That time of year again - teach me to count Rocky Road to Dublin
Time to get the St. Patrick's Day set list together. I'm a fairly bright guy, I know a bit about music, and I've even played some jazz guitar and mixed meter pieces in my day.
But for the life of me, I cannot manage to get the time for Rocky Road to Dublin in my head. I know in theory that it's basically a 9/8 slip jig. But this doesn't translate well to my fingers come playin' time. Can someone suggest a good way to count/keep time on this song?
