Hi all,
Just found this site and I think it may be what I'm looking for!! Hopefully someone here will be able to help me. I am looking for the notes of the Lonesome Boatman it is a song I heard years ago and I have always wanted to play it but could never figure out the notes of all of it. I can only play a few tunes on the whistle but I think this will help that!! So hopefully someone will be able to help me.
Thanks.
The Lonesome Boatman

Hi Fabio,
'The Lonesome Boatman' has been discussed on this board before,I'm almost sure-so an archive search may dredge up some info.
I know that 'The Low whistle Book' by Steafan Hannigan and David Ledsam,includes two versions of this tune.
To be honest,I think that this is a tune which is easier to learn by ear (I have a cheapo 'Best of Eddie and Finbar Furey' c.d. which features the original recording of this track,and only cost about £2.99.

Try this link Fabio,
It has the gif of the music notation and also you can hear a midi to see if it is the same tune you are looking for.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps. - Location: Lefse country
