Thread Name: Alex Campbell (1931-1987)
Subject: RE: Alex Campbell
In Nottingham I saw him drink two pints of vodka in the interval. His second set was better than his first.
Scouse, Jim, both of your posts are interesting. The "So long" that I thought was an Alex Campbell original starts I've been on the road, so long (so long)
I'm tired and cold, so long (so long)
I've been to the south, where the winds they are warm,
Travelling the road of no return, so long (so long)
How does that "Schon so lang" start, and translate? Clearly there is some similarity in the title.
Off to the DT to look for "So long"...
