On the Veteran CD 'When the May is All in Bloom' can be found a track by Louie Fuller entitled 'Twenty-One Years on Dartmoor', which apparently originates in America and is usually set in Nashville, and was recorded in the early '30s. It became popular amongst English travellers who presumably transferred its location to Dartmoor, one of England's most notorious prisons.
