jmhowe@sover,net Lyr Req: the call of the lonesome whippoorwill (4) Name this song:whipporwill? 21 May 99


Hi: Looking for name of this song and artist, and/or recording that I can find it on. Have been to two funerals lately in Vermont where a group called the Stockwell Brothers sang and played this with banjo's & mandolin..some lyrics below:

Listen to the call of the lonesome whippoorwill
As he sings to his sweetheart on the other hill.....

By the Way...this group.."Stockwell Brothers" seems to have been around for a long time in the bluegrass field and I have heard they did a stint in Washington, DC for a while...they have 2 recordings out...first called "Stobro" is terrific and new one (the name has gone out of my mind) is more update and less bluegrass but good...try them out.

You won't be sorry...I sure wasn't...Marge Howe (a Vermont transplant, longing for my old Virginy home!)
