I've been the guest on a podcast called "Handed Down", talking about "Poor Boy", a song I learned from my mom (so... not a song I've written, but a song I sing, so I'm hoping it "qualifies" for this thread. ;-) )

Here's the description of 'my' episode:
There's a lot going on in this American folk song - a lost love, a fight, jail and a miscarriage of justice. This is a song that has wandered its way around the Southern and Western states of the US and was popularised by Burl Ives. It's found in several versions, including one sung by Vikki Appleton Fielden's mother, which has some unique features. Vikki and I talk about memories of her mother who learned the song at a coffee house and sang it at concerts and family gatherings alike.

We also chat about the joy of singing Broadway songs, folk dancing, being a Yankee in Yorkshire, and what it's really like to record at the iconic Abbey Road Studios.

This is a bumper episode, but it's full of all kinds of interesting stuff. If you want to hear a Bulgarian folk song here's your opportunity. We also get to hear snippets of a couple of Vikki's hilarious parody songs, and a more sober song of modern times.

But can you solve the mystery of the song's bridge? It can't be found anywhere on the internet, so where is it from? Send us a tweet if you know! @handeddownpod

It's hosted by Jenny Shaw, who is knowledgeable, a lovely singer herself and a good interviewer. The podcast started in Sept '21 and you can find the other episodes here: "Handed Down"
