Re: The Chiff and Fipple Jig
Does anyone know the story behind this? Did Phil write the tune?

As a Chiffer I somehow feel damned with faint praise...

The Chiff & Fipple Forum rules! Even if I'm a newbie-ish penurious tone-deaf wannabe whistler. Look over to your left that's me.
Getting jiggy with it is one thing... however, Chiff deserves a March (as it rules whistledom) and deserves a beautiful Slow Air reelly!
Maybe there ought to have been a "challenge".

- Tell us something.: I play the whistle, I used to play flute but have Dupuytren's contracture so can only play whistle now which is fine. Mostly play sessions around Canterbury Kent area.

There was a good tune called 'Planxty Dale Wisely' way back in the mists of time! I have forgotten who wrote it but it went up on Clips and Snips. Someone will remember I am sure.
