Granton Fish Bowl

[Jim Besser]

I was intrigued by this week's Tunesday Tuesdays selection on Facebook, Granton Fish Bowl, written by Simon Thoumire, a tune with a distinctly Scottish feel.  Tried it at a brisk pace, but liked it better with a leisurely feel.   Played on a 30 button Jeffries G/D Anglo, for those who care about such details.

Thanks, Al. It's  wonderful tune that almost plays itself.

That seems just the right pace and feel. I like it a lot. Thanks, Jim.

THanks, Craig.  More and more, I am inclined to slow tunes down.  Many just sound more interesting when played slower and more rhythmically.  

 

As I said to Al, this is a tune that pretty much plays itself.

There are two parts to playing . First learn the tune ,the second part is to play it with feeling.

You have achieved the second part.
