GUEST,John Barnes	Dirty Old Town - pop single 1959! (31)	RE: Dirty Old Town - pop single 1959!	06 Oct 09
How well known was this song in 1959? One wonders how Joe Meek, Mike Preston or whoever knew about its existence. I assume that Ewan recorded it first, but, after that, who were the next folkie individuals or groups to pick up on it. I'm prtetty sure that, the Ian Campbell Group and The Spinners didn't record it until the 60s.
