Murray | Lyr Add: The Plough-Boy (John O'Keefe) (9) | RE: The Ploughboy Revisited | 09 Sep 97 |
Thanks, Bruce, for getting the dates right, etc. I knew it was from some play or other but couldn't remember which. Maybe the only question now is, where did Benjamin Britten get the song in the first place? He did say, I know, that his famous [and cliche'd] [damn the lack of accents!!] "The Foggy Foggy Dew" was got by a friend in some anonymous Suffolk pub. |
