Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is the Wild mountain thyme or as it was named by Paddy in his album Go Lassie Go.
It is one of the best renditions of this Scottish folk song.
The playstyle is supposed to be finger plucking but can be played with simple strums too.
the chords are very simple so there should not be any issues with them.
