The CD's are available now by email, and the RNLI will benefit.

Mine arrived at the weekend - I'll get the cheque in the post today, Bob - and I can confirm it's a terrific album. Here's the track listing. I was curious about where some of the songs came from, so I've googled up author details where I could find them. (Some of the titles are different from the ones given on the CD sleeve.)

1.        Introduction
2.        When all men sing (Keith Scowcroft and Derek Gifford)
3.        Hooks and nets (Ian Woods)
4.        All the good food (?)
5.        The curee of Langton (?)
6.        I polishes shoes (?)
7.        The boys of Killybegs (Tommy Makem)
8.        Let peace prevail (Joyce Nelson)
9.        Poor old man (Trad.)
10.        Shiney-O (Trad.)
11.        Blow the man down (Trad.)
12.        English ale (Harvey Andrews)
13.        Reunion (Cyril Tawney)
14.        Time enough tomorrow (Alex Glasgow)
15.        Shine on (John Richards)
16.        Parting song (Dave Webber)
17.        Last Shanty (Tom Lewis) and Marching Inland (Tom Lewis)
18.        The Minstrel Song (Alan Bell)
19.        Encore: The shores of Jordan (Iris DeMent)

I'm curious about the three songs I haven't managed to track down - "All the good food" (a poaching song - not sure about the title, as Johnny seems to be singing "wood"); "The curee of Langton" (a poacher's gallows song - wonder if the title should be 'curse'?); and "I polishes shoes". The Langton song (supposedly sung by a poacher from Worksop, if that helps) seems to be traditional; "I polishes shoes" sounds Victorian or early C20, and the "good food" song sounds contemporary. (And some of the material on this CD is quite surprisingly contemporary - the Joyce Nelson song was written after September 11th.) Anyone recognise any of these?

Excellent CD, anyway, and I'd encourage anyone who appreciated Johnny's singing to get a copy - PM Bob (SunrayFC above), or have a look at this page.
