Continuity Jones The Blackleg Miner and FAF. (114* d) RE: The Blackleg Miner and FAF. 24 Jun 10

There's a version of this on the most recent album - Spades, Hoes & Plows - by Welsh singer David Wrench. Like the rest of the album, it's a sinister piece.

For my part, I agree with the sentiments above about this horrible little song. Maybe if I were part of a mining community I'd feel I have some right to sing it, but as I'm not, it seems very odd to consider singing something so accusatory, righteous and divisive, even if the reason for singing it is claiming it back from the BNumPtys.
