GUEST,Lanfranc at the orifice Derek Brimstone songs (65* d) RE: Derek Brimstone songs 29 Jul 02

Sorry, Bernard Cromarty is definitely WRONG! Paddy Roberts wrote "The Belle of Barking Creek" and "The Ballad of Bethnal Green", which have very similar melodies, but he did not write "She Loved a Portugee".

As previously stated, as far as is known, it was written by Patrick Cogshill, who probably never made a penny out of it! I assume that MCPS, PRS etc have huge pots of unclaimed royalties owed to people like him.
