Dave,
Nice one - it ties in nicely with the time he told me that he changed his name because he thought 'Jimmy Miller' soinded like a second rate glasgow Music Hall act - though we'll see come September - if Ben Harker has done his research.
Charlie, I'm pretty sure nobody has recorded Northern City - Ewan was the only one I ever heard sing it (you are right; it isn't on New Britain Gazette).
Wolud be nice to hear it sung again.
Best,
Jim Carroll
PS Can't remember hearing anybody else sing 'Shellback' 'Tenant Farmer' or 'The Lag's Song' either, all pretty high on my list of favourites - any takers?.
