Hi Christopher..

Well yes I have the book and cd and have all that info you put up there. Thanks tho anyway..
There are other tunes on the cd.. And are played by Allie J. Young. Really old simple sounding clearly done tunes. . Larry does say the name of the tunes but I just can't understand him. I know a bit of french, born in Montreal Que.. moved to Ontario age 12 so lots quite a bit of the language. He says the tunes by french titles.

So if anyone can help with this would be great. and thanks again Christopher.. good day to all
