Thanks Mark, the CD has been held up by my sustaining a running injury which has put me out of ciculation for a couple of months. So I'm taking the opportunity to write up the liner notes while I'm stuck here in the house. The final song list is not yet decided and probably won't be until much later in the process but probables include The Garland of course(which I sing to a different tune-no idea where I got it), A mon like thee, Owd Sammy Shuttleworth, From the North,A begging I will go,The Plodder Seam,I means to wait for Jack,The four loom weaver,Bacon Butty,Dorothy Drew,Our Bill,Rawenstall Annual Fair,The coal and Albert Berry, Dance little Mon, Chips and Fish and Farewell Manchester. Other possibles are Paddy works on the Railway,cross country smokin',a monologue (maybe Androclese an't'Lion) and Doin'the Manch. I know this last isn't a Lancs song, but I have become so identified with it over here I can't possibly leave it off!
