I checked the forum but didn't find anything on this tune (Would You Care) so maybe one of you can answer my question This tune was originally written in 1891 and I heard Lulu Belle and Scotty sing it many times in the 1930s and 1940s and for years I thought that they composed it,but in 1969 another person came out with this tune by the same name (Would You Care) and made a big hit out of it.He changed a few words but theorectically the tune is the same.Same Notes Same Tune Same everything except the wording changed slightly. (Example)
Originally written.Would you care if I should leave you 1891.His version 1969.Just suppose that I should leave you.In my opinion this artist took credit for something he didn't have the right to.Other opinions.One other note Lulu Belle and Scotty sang it the same way it was originally written that is where I learned it Louie Roy
