Bruce O. | Origins: Bachelor's Hall - clarification needed (30) | RE: Bachelor's Hall - clarificaiton needed | 13 Dec 99 |
Dibdin's "Bachelor's Hall" is from his 'The Oddites', 1790 (as is "Every Inch a Sailor") and is reprinted in 'The Universal Songster', II, p. 355, 1826. "Bachelor's Hall" is the subtitle of one of Thomas Moore's songs in the Levy sheet music collection. Where the American one came from I don't know. |
