GUEST,smokylass Lyr Req: Adieu Madras (recorded by Leon Bibb) (34) RE: Lyr Req: adieu madras, cherries and plums 08 Sep 10

Hi, I am looking everywhere for Leon Bibb records. here are the words I remember
    Madras was just a port of call
    A seaport town in old Bengal
    And I was only passing through
    When love appeared, what could I do?
    For love burned bright when it was new
    But now adieu, Madras adieu.
    .... (?)
    And who'll recall, within a year, that ever I was standing here?
    for love burned bright when it was new but now adieu
    Madras Adieu

I had Cherries and Plums, my mothers' favorite and mine.. lost and I would also like to find it again. Maybe Eric Bibb (his son)has a way to reissue.. ? ( Quinto, Windsong, Easeman and many others.. )
