Have you tried googling for Popes Instrumental - you get nothing but returns from lyric sites :shock:
However, according to my cd the tracks are; Popes Instrumental - My Ballyvourney Love/ The Limpin General / Bag Of Chips.

Seriously though i started learnign it . I did the forst two parts of the Poes Instrumenatl. The first one is the same as Batlle of Brisbane , THe second bit Bag Of Chips is a variation of the same , ANd the 3rd bit ..... I got Dee dee deedeedeedee ...... Hopefully someone else can help.

I can sedn you the tab for the other 2 bits if thats any consolation. (for Tenor banjo/ Mandolin)


I was wondering about the Popes' instrumental as well. On "Montreux Live DVD 1995" it is called "Bring down the lamp", on "Across the Broad Atlantic 2001" it is called "Popes' Instrumental - blablablabla" (don't know the exact names they used there).

The first one is definitely "Battle of Brisbane", the second one I don't know, the last one sounds a lot like "Squid out of Water" (Hell's Ditch) to me? But I'm not sure about the last one!
