The Old Stage (slide)

This is the third slide from Jackie Daly on Patrick Street's 'Made In Cork' CD:

The Midnight Ramble http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/9831
The Bogman http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/9834
The Old Stage

This tune is extremely like John Kelly's Slide (http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/2130) in the A part, but the B part is quite different.

The Old Stage (slide)

Just been looking throuigh the excellent book "300 Tunes from Mike Rafferty' by Lesl Harker, and came across a slide called "Ta Mo Mhadra", which is another version of "The Old Stage". An alternative title is given as "Poor Nancy Died".
