Back to Cush Lasso
CUSH LASSO. Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The title is a variant of the Irish name Cois Leasa (Beside a Rath). There is some debate over whether this tune is a variant of "Flowers of Edinburgh," as Bayard and others maintain, or whether it as not, the opinion of Alfred Moffat.
