Subject: Webber-Fentiman
Here's (click) another song you may hear from Webber-Fentiman. Anni Fentiman sings "Sandgate Wife's Nurse Song" solo on their Constant Lovers CD. The tune is the same as Liverpool Lullaby, that Judy Collins recorded on her In My Life album. Also look at Do-Li-A, which uses the same tune. The lyrics seem unrelated, although "Sandgate" appears in both. -Joe Offer- Another Webber-Fentiman song you might hear is Old King Coal, written by John Kirkpatrick. Also Linden Lea, with lyrics by William Barnes and tune by Ralph Vaughan Williams. And another - Row On.
I think my favorite song from the evening was My Lady of Autumn, about unrequited love. MY Lady of Autumn loved this song - but alas, not quite enough.
