Subject: RE: blue books revisited (Rise Up Singing)
That's right McGrath, The book is called "Rise Up Singing". Actually it's a really good book for getting people started. But some folks take it too far.

Ah yes Dick, I remember singing "The Barley Mow" at a Philadelphia Folk Song Society circle one time and a guy said just that - "you sang it wrong". And I'd learned the song before he was bloody born.
