Wild Mountain Thyme

[banjoboog]

I think I've done this one on everything I've ever played at one time or another. My dad was a really fine whistler and he used to whistle it with all kinds of "doodly-doos" in the melody. I find it a really haunting tune.

Hi Bluesman ... according to Wikipedia it was written by Francis McPeake, of Belfast, Northern Ireland. It is a variant of a traditional song The Braes of Balquhidder by Robert Tannahill.
