Please forgive me for harping about ABC notation but there are many thousands of dance tunes freely available on the Web AND you can change the mode (and hence the notes) with half a dozen keystrokes in the K: field (key signature). I'll have a little experiment and report back Rakes of Mellow is a tune I learned to hate until I changed the F#'s (in the key of G) to F naturals, and hey presto you have a brand new sound. It works brilliantly in the A part of the tune and less spectactularly in the B part, but still fine. From memory I've posted this version to Mudcat in years past - I think. Regards, John
