Les, That song was probably 'Jarama Valley' about a sad disaster for the Rupublicans. Woody Guthrie recorded a lovely version which appears on one of the Smithsonian Folkways CD's, so it may well be contemporary with the Spanish Civil War. I've heard it sung in Spanish too but I forget by whom. I think the tune has been used for other songs too. |
