Subject: Bawdy - With a jingle by jingle From: John in Brisbane Date: 08 Jan 02 - 08:26 AM This is a double entendre ballad about a blacksmith's conversation with an unhappily married woman. There are the usual references to his forge and his metal getting hotter and harder. It's far from an obscure piece I would have thought, but then again I haven't heard it in the last thirty years or so. In a minor key as I recall. I couldn't find it in the DT or Forum. Regards, John |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Bawdy - With a jingle by jingle From: masato sakurai Date: 08 Jan 02 - 09:18 AM The one posted in the thread, Ed McCurdy's version of "A Lusty Young Smith" (also in Ed McCurdy's Song Book of Wit and Mirth, Hargail, n.d., p. 15), has a "With a jingle bang" burden. Thomas D'Urfey's "The Lusty Young Smith" (in S.A.J. Bradley, Sixty Ribald Songs from Pills to Purge Melancholy, Andre Deutsch, 1968, pp. 146-147) has a different melody and burden ("With a rub, rub, rub, rub, rub, rub, in and out, in and out, ho!"). ~Masato |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Bawdy - With a jingle by jingle From: GUEST,A Non Date: 08 Jan 02 - 11:27 AM There's no evidence that the song is by D'Urfey. It was in the 2nd volume of the first 3 editions of Pills to Purge Melancholy, 1700, 1707, and 1712, and in the 4th volume in the 4th edition (1719). In the latter edition D'Urfey's songs (with a few others) were gathered in the 1st 2 volumes.--- data from Day & Murrie's English Song-Books, 1940.

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Bawdy - With a jingle by jingle From: Anglo Date: 08 Jan 02 - 12:19 PM MMario's first link (to the "Cantaria" page) has lyrics with the "Jingle Bang" chorus. They refer to two versions of the song, "traditional" and "contemporary" and link to a nice mp3 of the former, the d'Urfey tune and text ("Rub, rub, rub" chorus) sung by Jeff Lee. There's also a non-working link to a "contemporary" version, probably the Ed McCurdy "Jingle Bang" one, by Andrew Scarhart. |

I note that Joe had not left his cratch marks on the earlier thread to indicate that he had harvested the lyrics. Regards, John |
