Thread Name: Chris Couveau ? Ballad of Reading Gaol
Subject: RE: Chris Couveau ? Ballad of Reading Gaol
I have just had a friend play the tune "I Saw Her As She Came and Went" from the "Coffee House Songbook" (see post No. 1 above, part 2) and while it is not EXACTLY the same (as Colin Dryden's/Paul Lawler's tune), there are enough similarities for me to conclude that Colin Dryden had DEFINITELY heard this version, somewhere, all those years ago ...

Any more clues?

Who (and where) is Chris Couveau?


Cheers! R-J
