Subject: RE: What Does The Deep Sea Say?
Mine is more or less Mac and Bob (as learned from Tim Woodbridge, who sat down one day with the Mac and Bob recording and "found out that the words actually made sense that way." I've never heard Vermin Dahlhart's recording; Tim played the Mac and Bob record for me, but I HAVE copies of both the Monroe Bros and Blue Sky Boys recording-- and back in 1964 (plus or minus 2) at the Phila Folk Festival I heard Bill Monroe and Doc Watson do it with Doc taking Charlie Monroe's part-- which is when I decided I wanted to know it! (took another couple years to meet Tim and start doing as a duet with him)-- hope this is not WTMI
Wonder what the Carter Family recording sounded like! It's not on the Bear Family set. . .
