Hesk Songs no longer heard in uk folk clubs (76* d) RE: Songs no longer heard in uk folk clubs 08 Apr 25


"Martin Said to His Man" is occasionally sung by myself and others in Hampshire UK. it is the kind of song that needs to be given a rest between each rendition, as it quickly loses its appeal without a long gap in between. Nevertheless it goes down well if performed robustly, and it is fun if the singer leaves the door of the room as the song comes to its end.
Other than that, most songs previously heard in our local folk clubs are still heard occasionally. However, no one wants to be the singer who is known as always singing the same song, and for that reason they all need a rest from time to time!
