GUEST,Lighter at work Penguin: Ratcliffe Highway (43) RE: Penguin: Ratcliffe Highway 21 Jan 05


Doerflinger's "Ratcliffe Highway," the one that forms the basis for one version of "Blow the Man Down," is an entirely different song from that in Penguin.

Hugill gives at least two different versions of it, and Louis Killen has recorded it under the title of "The Fire Ship." Lloyd & MacColl call it "Cruising 'Round Yarmouth."
