Thread Name: Ewan MacColl singing First Time Ever
Subject: RE: Ewan McColl singing First Time Ever
Ewan 'made' the song over the telephone to Peggy when she was on tour in the States. She had called to say she needed a contemporary love song for a concert she was performing at. She recorded it on a Folkways LP of new songs called New Briton Gazette. Ewan sang it at The Singers Club several times but I don't think he ever recorded it. Jim Carroll
