Subject: RE: Favourite Cowboy Songs-Second Edition
OK, Kat, here's an example: there's a tune for "The Cowboy," pp. 96-99, but no tune again until "Fuller and Warren" comes on page 126. The songs in between without tunes are:
Bill Peters, the Stage Driver
Hard Times (and that's such a good song)
Cole Younger
Mississippi Girls
The Old Man Under the Hill
Jerry, Go Ile That Car (an Art Thieme hit, right?)
John Garner's Trail Herd
The Old Scout's lament
The Lone Buffalo Hunter
The Crooked Trail to Holbrook
Only a Cowboy
I have tunes to many of these in other books, but I was wondering if the tunes to any of these have been added to the Lomax book. For that matter, are the songs in your book in the same order, and have any been added? Should I be satisfied with the gem I've got, or should I also lust for a later edition?
Should I try lusting after women instead of songbooks?
