Välkommen Hem Sally

[Jim Besser]

Välkommen Hem Sally, a tune written by my friend Bruce Sagan. Bruce and colleague Brad Battey include their recording of the tune on their newish CD "Letter from America," a collection of Scandinavian-inflected tunes written in the US.

 

I have little expertise in Scandinavian styles, and I've been told that whatever I play ends up sounding like it belongs in the Morris / English ceilidh context. That may be true of this version, but I love the tune and I love the CD.

 

Played on a 30 button Jeffries G/D Anglo.
