Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Corries
Subject: RE: Lyrics re The Corries
Yes, for lyrics the Corries site is a disappointment. But Gavin Browne has helped me with lyrics I wasn't too sure about, so maybe if you ask him ... Is there any specific song you are looking for, Joe? I've got quite a few by now. Just let me know, and I'll let you know.

Jenny, Roy's daughter has written a book on her father. I skimmed through it and thought it a touch too idolising for my taste, but if you're keen you might ask Gavin Browne about it. I can't remember the publisher.

The Corries certainly were a great band, and the first ones to direct me to Scottish music. I never cared much for their self-penned songs, particularly the comic ones like 'Sunday Driver', and I only saw them live once and thought the performance a bit too slick, but I still like the albums. Nowadays I usually listen to other stuff, but every now and again ...
