5/4 Tune for Jim

This is one of those tunes that have languished in a manuscript book, largely unplayed, and for which I’ve  never got round to thinking up a proper name. Jim Adams was a work colleague at Thames Valley University. Among other things, he used to produce video tutorials, and suggested that I might like to provide some intro/outro music. This was the result. I’m not sure it was entirely suitable, and in any case it never made it into any format which Jim could use. But occasionally I’ve gone back to it. And I have to say, it’s not a bad tune. Besides, who doesn’t like a nice bit of 5/4?

It occurs to me that there’s a recently invented tradition of Cornish dances in 5-time – Kabm Pymps. I’m not sure if this meets the criteria for this type of dance tune. But if so, Cornish chums, help yourself. You might even like to give the tune a proper title.
