Thread Name: Req: songs about Pretoria Pit Disaster(Lancashire)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Pretoria Pit Disaster (Lancashire)
Thanks Dave, I can't think of anything, other than perhaps that it would be interesting to know what spurred the writing of this song;

And, perhaps - did they opt for the 'Tramps and Hawkers' tune because of its prior use with other mining ballads?
