Barry Sea Song? When My Spell Is Over (9) RE: Sea Song? When My Spell Is Over 30 Dec 97


Pete, thanks, checked out When This Bloody War Is Over, in the DT, tunes are the same, some wording is the same (no more sailoring for me, etc..), goals, duties, etc. are similar, just different trades. I don't believe mine is Navy, though. George, who I got it from was only in the Merchant service, starting at 13 as cabinboy, back around 1905 & quit (to become a master rigger) the sea in the 30's, (did have any Navy in him) there's also no references connecting it to anything Naval. It's says it the DT recorded by MacColll, WWII, do you of anyone else know anymore about it. Again Pete, Thanks Barry
