Steve Gardham A Yorkshire Songster new book available (Gardham) (85* d) RE: A Yorkshire Songster new book available (Gardham) 30 May 25


Just to be clear, the bulk of the songs come from the Hudleston Collection and were previously published in 2001 no longer available. The book contained a number of flaws in its transcriptions and we have gone back to original recordings to transcribe the selected songs. 18 of the songs come from the repertoire of the great Arthur Wood of Littlebeck and some of these were released on a double CD by Mustrad from recordings made by Colin Wharton in 1962. Although a lot of the songs come from the Esk valley we have balanced this where possible with songs from other parts of Yorkshire, notably from Ruairidh Greig's recordings around Sheffield in the early 70s and my own East Riding recordings made in the 60s and 70s. Some of the songs came from the Yorkshire Garland website, naturally.
