Subject: RE: LYR&MUS ADD: The Flowers Of The Heath From: Joe Offer Date: 24 Jul 06 - 02:26 PM He never did follow up, and now he's gone. In memory of John, can anybody give us more information on this beautiful song, and point us to a tune or a recording? For me, the song captures the beauty of the heath, which hides treasures of flowers of all sorts and colors under its purple carpet. -Joe- |

Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Flowers of the Heath From: Jim Dixon Date: 25 Jul 06 - 11:28 PM FLOWERS OF THE HEATH might be a translation of a Welsh song called BLODAU'R GRUG – but "Blodau'r Grug" is also the name of a famous collection of Welsh tunes, so I'm a bit confused, since I can't read Welsh. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Flowers of the Heath From: Snuffy Date: 26 Jul 06 - 08:14 AM Different words, but much the same imagery and sentiments here in the DT SPRING GLEE |
