Mick Woods | Which Town is MacColl's Dirty Old Town? (192* d) | RE: Which Town is MacColl's Dirty Old Town? | 20 Jan 11 |
Most of the people that "assume" it refers to an Irish town heard it first sung by the Dubliners or The Pogues. As the song doesn't name the town, that's a reasonable mistake to make! Mind you if those two acts hadn't covered it, then it would probably have remained unknown outside of the small folk community in england. |
