Bill Sullivans Polka ~ Picture & Soundfile

I'm not sure this tune is right for us on the forum as it is an Irish polka. But it does show a way of putting the key numbers over the note values so you can get some idea of the timing in the tune plus which key to use.

The tune is written in the ABC system and I put the key numbers above the note. I have used ABC for years(uilleann pipes) and find it helpful. Here's a link for your information:

Please only post it if you think it is appropriate. It was a thought to help me as being isolated in playing the Cajun accordion to learn a few more tunes. Now to find some Cajun music!

Thanks ... Ed Harrison Taylors SC
