The Accrington McBrides (Dick Gaughan)

I heard this tune, on the recent Dick Gaughan release "Live! At The Trades Club". What a loveley tune, played perfect by the master...

What it makes it interesting and special to me is not only the brillant playing of Dick. It is also the fact, that the tune reminds me strongly of an old German dancetune from the 19th century. Only a view notes and the timing is different. A good example of the strong celtic influence in parts of Germany.

Excellent playing! Did not the Celts come originally from Southern Germany/Danube valley anyway? I would hope we left some mark on the area! Would love to hear the German dance tune it reminds you of?

Thanks for commenting. I am working on this german dance tune. It was written in a realy strange time and I haven´t a clue about notes. So ... I´ll see.

Brillant playing. Great Tune. Interesting Comment. Gaughan would be pleased.

Thanks for that kind comment. But I am not shure he would be pleased. Listen to his latest Album and you´ll hear the Sound of the Master of DADGAD. Unreached.

It's a shame music industry in Germoney hasn't got any clue which act is a good choice..I always have got to import my cd's or buy directly in the UK. Very well done btw. Thx for upload
