LEARN JIG = Saddle The Pony

[Kyanndi]

This video has been extremely helpful! I'm learning this and the Connaughtman's Rambles for my first jigs but I always get the rhythm wrong and since I only go to lessons once a week I don't really have an idea of how it should sound. Thank you for uploading it!

You're doing a great service to music, Jim, by encouraging more people to learn to play. You should produce a CD tutoring music.

Many thanks for all your hard work and for your encouragement to beginners like myself.

Great tune Jim!

I've been meaning to learn this for a long time. I usually just piddle though it. I just happened to have a whistle next to me (surprise) while looking about... so now I don't need to.

Thanx!
