Stewie Mudcat Australia-New Zealand Songbook (1369* d) RE: Mudcat Australia/NZ Songbook 24 Jul 21


Back in December last year, JennieG posted the lyrics to 'The Cross of the South'. I stumbled upon this rollicking rendition in a clip by Seona McDowell who was totally unknown to me. Evidently, she made an LP of Australian folksongs for Folkways which later became Smithsonian Folkways. Despite the incongruous bluegrass backing, it is not without its charm.

Some info on Seona McDowell on Paul the Stockman's site:

Where did she perform in Australia?
