American Blues, country Bluegrass etc irecordings are in a separate folder, please visit also.
Primary web site for the folkbluesnbeyond experience and links:

Thanks, Bill |

| Photos of the journey to here as reflected in my 'make music make friends' philosophy. A journey from callow youth to brutish mid life adolescence facilitated by free web space. Ho hum. What might be the musical instrument equivelant of the red sports car? |

| A collection of working documents for study purposes only which I have prepared or downloaded from free use sites.
As described lyrics, mostly with chords and usually as I play the songs. |

| A set of tunes played by ESMM musicians for children to practise in preparation for 2008 Golden Anniversary Schools Dances. Mick Reeve guitar, Dick Thornborrow bass and production, Adam Garland some drums, others programmed by Alan Walters, me on melodeons, some guitar and mandolin. Should all be usable dance length. Later mixes will be posted on ESMM site, I may do some remixes in due course. |

| These are recordings i made in about 2000 as practice pieces for musicians and dancers. They were recorded directly to cd from microphone and are posted pretty unprocessed so expect nothing but the tune played on a melodeon. |

| A new section of the Folkbluesnbeyond experience The folk and US trad folders were getting cluttered with covers and pop so this folder has become appropriate. |

| Posting a mixture of tunes which i have had difficulty finding and/or which i enjoy and want to share. Study purposes only and generally as cobbled for my own use. My musical education is limited despite my aspirations so i will accept correction with good grace!
In keys playable by me |

| Mike and Carolyn LAst, John Thistlethwaite and Bill Johnston with Ozzie Thistlethwaite guesting on fiddle. We hired a village hall and made a 'demo tape'. Basically an 'in your face, all play at the same time and beware the stratocaster' type of folk band! We are older and wiser now and partially extant as 'Instep Ceilidh Band' THis is loud and messy! |
