Subject: RE: They're Coming Back to the Water
So that's who Benny the Whale is, Benny Graham. I've been singing a song that I got from an old friend & mudcatter Ricky "Riggy" Rackin. I picked it off Riggy about 30 yrs ago & only knew it came from someone called Benny the Whale. The song's called the "Idle Welder" the tune's very close to the "4 Loom Weaver". Would Steve or Greg thank Benny & let him know that, that song has grown long legs in America.
