New Year's Eve Surprise

I have looked more carefully at the booklet now and realise that Mr Malley has gone to a great deal of trouble and actually re-transcribed all of the tunes and so far they seem to be a very accurate copy of the originals, but including the chords as well.
This was the first collection of tunes which I purchased when first starting to learn the fiddle and it certainly stood me in good stead for familiarising with a vast quantity of excellent melodies from the tradition.
