GUEST,Roldo Tune Req: Crippled Kingfisher (13) RE: Tune Req: Crippled Kingfisher 06 Sep 10


I've been wondering about this as well. What does strike me is that if no such tune exists then is the Crippled Kingfisher reference to the "the Fisher King"? There's a lot of subtle Golden Bough vibe to this song - like the last verse which hints at Meanades and the Corn King.
If there isn't a fiddle tune called "The Crippled Kingfisher" I'd say Pete Stampfel has dibs on writing one.
