Bat Goddess Places In 'Celebrated Working Man' (12) RE: Places In 'Celebrated Working Man' 04 Jun 15


I know there's an American version, but I'll have to go to my desktop computer to access the notes. (Later.)

Before Tom (Curmudgeon) died, I asked him his source for many of the songs he sang. And I'm primarily interested in keeping Tom's repertoire alive in our musical circle. (Thirty-two years of his guidance and influence at the Press Room (Portsmouth, NH), for example.)

Tom had been performing in the Boston, MA area and NH Seacoast since the early 1960s. His was originally influenced (when he'd indicated an interest in British folk) by two LPs his father bought him -- A.L. Lloyd's "English Drinking Songs" and Ewan MacColl's "Bad Lads and Hard Cases".
