Lighter Origins: Cruising round Yarmouth (80* d) RE: Origins: Cruising round Yarmouth 10 Sep 24

At this point it might be worthwhile to mention another song, which over the years has come to resemble "Cruising 'Round Yarmouth" and its immediate predecessor - or sibling - "Ratcliffe Highway" or "Polly of Portsmouth."

That other song is the one now often called "The Roving Kind," though before 1951 it was usually "The Fireship" or "A Dark and Rolling Eye."

I'll take up this branch of the family at /mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=1239#2698904
