Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Leaving of Liverpool. Leaving Mally

Only for this tune. I've recently been trying to relearn this following Mally Production's 'Instant Tin Whistle - Folk' version. I've decided that it's not a good idea and have reverted to keeping to the music I first learnt - an internet find. Whether it's the most 'truest' version - who knows, that's folk music!


I'm going on the notion that you'll allowed to review up to 10% of a book for reference purposes. Apologies to the original publisher if this isn't the case. Let me know and I'll remove it.

Both excellent and fun. Another 'must watch' video:



I especially love the flute. The super-talented jakkrakker's on uke.

Re: Leaving Of Liverpool

I decided to put this one under "Leaving of Liverpool" as it's basically the same song. Dylan & Turner do it great justice:

Leaving Of Liverpool

A tune I think will sound great on tinwhistle. Here sung in indomitable style by The Pogues:



Dating from around the end of the 19th century "Leaving Of Liverpool" is a favourite folk tune which has inspired many others.
