Subject: RE: Sad Bells of Rhymney - Huw Williams From: GUEST,jim bainbridge Date: 19 Aug 20 - 11:47 AM Folk song? By some definitions, maybe, but written in the thirties by IDRIS DAVIES, the great Welsh poet, who had a strong Welsh background. To avoid any misapprehension, Pete Seeger's contribution was to set it to music- i'm sure he would never have claimed authorship and trust no-one else has- IMHO the best version I ever heard was by Ian Campbell. |
