Thread Name: Origins: I Wish I Was in England (Christy Moore)
Subject: I wish I was in England
I've been searching for this tune for over a year now. I heard it once, long ago, on a Christy Moore album. It was done about 1972 or 73, I think. The album was called "prosperous". I'm wondering if it is a traditional song, was it written by him, or is it a combination of both? I'm hoping to put it on a CD I'm soon recording, but I don't want any snags with copyrights. Anyone out there have any ideas?
