There's also a wonderful album by a group out of the Northamptoon area called the Rude girls. Among other things they do the Ballad of Francine Hughs (never know how to spell that) about the woman who actually set her husband's bed on fire (with him in it) after he'd abused her for years. Also has a great cross dresser sailor song called the Female Rambling sailor. I also like Tom Paxton's Mary Got a New Job. There are also some pretty interesting songs about creative political actions. My favorite is one which I know as The Balloon Song about a group of women who go into an Oktoberfest celebration, which is attended by George Bush and Helmut Cole (sp) The security is tight, but they look the part of nice Madchens. Under their dresses they have big No Euro Missile banners, attached to helium balloons. Up they go and there's nothing that can be done about 'em. I also like Jock O Hazeldeen, since the woman runs off with the guy she wants to marry, rather than going for the weaaalthy fellow her folks have picked out for her. Isabella Gunn is also a great one. I also remember a Judy Small song about Jessie Street (Streep) an upper class Austrlian woman who worked a lot in pretty radical causes. Gate sof the Boyne (or is it Aboyne) is also great. Shehas the taste to love a guy who comes and gets her out of the mess she's in. I'd prefer it if she did it herself, but . . . Cindy Kallet does that one with Gordon Bok. How about Coal Mining Woman, sung y Cathy Fink, Betsy Rose also does one called I'm Settled, about throwing a party, since she has no intention or wish to get married, and that's where you get al of the goods. Anyway, there are lots more. I'll keep thinking, and if any of this appeals, let me know and I'll track down lyrics.
