GUEST,Guest Bob Blair Lyr Req: my old man's a unionman by alex glasgow (12) RE: Lyr Req: my old man's a unionman by alex glasgow 24 Sep 18


Brakn The song is in Close the Coalhouse Door. It can be found at approx 33 mins in if you listen to the link I posted above

It's a woman's song and I'm not sure that Alex ever recorded it and it doesn't appear on The Songs of Alex Glasgow Vols 1 and 2, nor does it appear on a third recording that was available which he made at an Edinburgh Festival with Henry Livings. Great recordings.

Incidentally if anyone has a copy of a TV programme that Alex did called The Camera and the Song, then I'd be grateful for a copy. It was part of a series that I've been trying to get hold of for years. The songs from the TV programme or on the The Songs of Alex Glasgow Vols 1 and 2
