GUEST,Mr Red - suitably rewarded. Ewan MacColl - real name? (78* d) RE: Ewan McColl - real name? 04 Aug 05


From the blickie

Ewan MacColl was born in Salford and named James by his parents

OK pedantry aside but NOTE THE LOWER CASE!

Searches for Ewan McColl & Webb produced nothing, to narrow the search you have to know the answer & wade (and know the spelling!!!!). I think the 1 minute answer was about in my bet range, I owe myself a drink.

Cheers

FWIW I know he put in one of his "folk" song books the attribution to several songs "From the singing of ...... " Which I now know to be "Jimmy(ie) Miller"
