For many years now, my favourite song from the British tradition has been Tam Lin. I've even gone as far as to publish this view on my homepage , but I definitely wouldn't want to listen to it every day, and with 25+ verses it doesn't get sung too often. Then again, for over 30 years I've been listening to the songs and music of UK singer/songwriter Leon Rosselson, and I've not tired of them yet. (But if you aren't "a socialist" you probably wouldn't get past the first chorus). Again these songs are seldom performed in the clubs I attend.
I think, as I infer Bob does, that "favourite song" and "rarely sung" go together ?
Any views anybody.
