Week 1/2 - Shoe The Donkey

I let Sinéad pick my first piece to learn in the new year and she suggested one I already play regularly on piano and guitar for céilís, Shoe The Donkey. I've written up some notation (see below) without ornamentation and even managed to make a VERY rough recording of me playing it. I'll post my trials and tribulations of trying to get a glitch-free recording under Mac OS-X and an M-Audio Firewire 410 some other day.
Please forgive the quality of the recorded audio - it was recorded on an ibook in my living room and is intended purely as a reference for myself to see how much (and if) I improve during the year.
