    Hi Scotty.

    As usual, you demonstrate  total mastery of your instrument and brilliant production skills. 

    This is excellent.  

    Nice work.

    Robby,
    It does seem to have a Celtic flair in he first part, however, I modeled the tune in the style of older tunes written about North American Indians. I modeled the second half after what I used to hear in early westerns, related to western North American Indians.

    Old55,
    Thank you!

    Hi Scotty , I finally got to listen to this tune . SoundCloud for some strange reason would not work when I tried to listen to your Christmas song you posted so I missed out on that but hey I really like what you did here .
    You really captured that Native American sound  , very cool and as always your always on target  when playing any of your instruments .

    Nice one - James

    I think I have heard this before Scotty, but that doesn't matter, quite happy to enjoy it again. There's a direct lineage between American 'Mountain Music' 
    and Scots/Irish traditional music, so there's no escaping the Celtic influence. 

    Strangely, the 'chorus' section reminded me of Gary Moore...

    Ha... Elizabeth Warren would love this... this European sounding reel would have us believe it's an indian tune...

    Expert performances Scotty, but maybe a little over compressed,,, not unlike the Senator-elect...

    This is a cool song, but I don't get the native American connection.  Unless you're including the Irish.

    All the best,

    Herb,
    I like that analogy! Thanks! 

    James1213,
    Thanks for that info. I also have celtic blood in me so no matter what I play, there is no escaping the celtic influence for me. LOL.

    Frank,
    European, eh? Now I'm totally cornfoosed. LOL I recorded this in a friend's studio and he did the over-compressed mixing on it. I think I would have given it a warmer and more open mix if I had my choice.

    daryl1968,
    Thanks! Glad ye liked it!

    Lynn,
    It's in the drum beat in the chorus sections. I guess the addition of the lady from Ireland playing the bodhran really threw it to the Celts. LOL.

    It appears the general consensus is that this I should change the song title to the Native American Leprechaun

    Definately sounds like and Irish Indian tune   I sounds a lot like a tune I wrote for fiddle on MIDI years ago, although you are far better on the strings than I could ever be plunking out fiddle lines on the keyboard.

    Nicely done and very catchy.

    excellent.

    i can hear the psuedo-native american thing, it's more of a hint of it, rather than diving straight in


    i'd love to hear you actually take this approach (instruments and method) and apply it to an authentic native american rhythm.
    i think that would be a way cool fusion
