The recent bushcraft anthems thread led to me getting a Tin Whistle and, once I got it back from my wife (she really shouldn't hide it in the same place each time!), I have been practising with it whenever no-one is around. Of course the neigbours can always move...
Anyway I've been practicing the Hector the Hero song and although I'm still rubbish I am finally beginning to hear bits of the song in my playing.
Doc got me into tin whistling and Hector the Hero (I think his great-grandfather served with the Hector who the songs about.)
So if anyone is intersted here is the song (just scroll down til you find it)Hector the Hero
Just download the MP3 file. it's a beautiful rendition of it the way it should be played. One day I'll get there.....
Oh and Doc - One day for the crack eh?
