Like New York. Or London. I'm not sure this is a great deal of help, but I couldn't resist responding to another F&S fan. Good luck. Have you heard "Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud"? |

I was smitten after hearing "The Gas-Man Cometh" on a radio nostalgia program just prior to this. Will try this old fashioned resource in a few days. Regards Johnb |

I heard them in the US when I was a kid (I believe it was the At the Drop of a Hat tour. Mud, mud glorious mud Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood So follow me, follow Down to the hollow And there we shall wallow in glorious MUD! My dad used to sing it around the house all the time! Does anyone remember the Cannibal Song??? I just remember the bit: I won't eat people Eatin' people is wrong! I'd love to find out the details on this hardcover book of F&S's lyrics, etc. -kit |

27 May 97 - 01:53 AM (#5795) Subject: RE: Flanders & Swann: Sloth From: Benjamin Hollister The Book I took the lyrics from for Steffan was "The Songs of Flanders And Swann" It was published in 1977 by Elm Tree Books and St George's Press, so I don't know of it's current availability. The address listed for them then was 90 Great Russell St London WC1B 3PT. Good Luck Benjamin
