Thread Name: Maritime songs wanted please Hull area
Subject: RE: Maritime songs wanted please Hull area
A few years ago I was asked to write a song about Lilian (Big Lil) Bilocca, a fisherman's wife from Hull who campaigned for improved safety aboard trawlers in the 1960s. The song, Big Lil, was recorded on our CD 'Characters'. The words are on our website Crane Drivin' Music - I can send you an mp3 of the tune if you'd like - PM me.
