GUEST,JFL | Lyr Req: Mah Lindy Lou (Lily Strickland, 1920) (19) | RE: Lyr Req: Mah Lindy Lou (Lily Strickland, 1920) | 30 Mar 10 |
Coming somewhat late to the table and from far away (Canberra , Australia) this was a song I think I first heard in the early 50s by Paul Robeson and I heard it again yesterday on an old time music show on a Radio for the Sight Impaired network. Again I think it was Paul Robeson - it seemed a little too rich for John Charles Thomas, and it was a bit scratchy but so beautiful that it was probably improved by its imperfections. The lyrics fit the melody so beautifully and the melody is exquisite. |
