So I just downloaded the Falconer Demos from Kufen's FTP (cheers Kufen!) and I was pleasantly surprised with the find. I haven't yet bought Hell's Ditch but I'm wondering if the arrangements are mostly pretty similar. Also, I really liked 5 Green Queens and Jean - such a nice little tune. Was it per...
