"Dundee" (TLH #49)


This is in Eb major, which is not a key I particularly enjoy playing in, but when I tried to transpose it to E major, it was even worse.  I kept it in Eb major, although that means there's some extraneous fret noise as my fingers move to wider intervals than they probably would in a different key.

The bass part is supposed to have a low Eb note, but in standard tuning, basses go down only to E, so I played that Eb an octave higher than it's written.
