David Delarre - The Sligo Maid

PayPal Tip Jar: paypal.me/davi...
Here's my arrangement of a lovely little traditional reel from Ireland. I've been teaching this one on my folk guitar course at Cecil Sharp House in London.
I recently purchased a new pickup for my Larivee D-05 which enables me to mic up each string individually so I've put the bottom three strings into an octave and reverb pedal! I sneak it on in the B section..
Hope you like it! I'm still getting used to it.
Here's the TAB for my arrangement:

David - this is a very nice arrangement - I saw you in Harrogate on February 21st (and caught the plectrum that Steve used...), when you were playing with Steve Harley and his acoustic band. I wondered if you could do your arrangement of 'Sebastian' from that set? That was phenomenal - I'd actually say it was miles better than the version with James Lascelles on keyboard.

Thanks for your very kind comments! I’m not sure if a solo fingerstyle arrangement of Sebastian will work?! I’ll have a look though
