Thread Name: Origins: Rolling Down to Old Maui
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rollin' Down To Old Maui
Charley, I'm afraid there is no way to tackle the puzzle. All we have are a few texts and some tunes.
Based on the above posts, the apparently independent primary texts in chronological order are:
1858 "Atkins Adams" (Huntington)
1859-63 bark "Waverly" (Frank)
1868-70 ship "Europa" (Frank)
before 1938 Colcord
before 1947 "Guy C. Goss" (Nye/ Harlow)
1967 Lloyd, "Leviathan" LP
1970 Hugill _Spin_ (rpt. in _The Bosun's Locker_ (2006)
Gotta go: more a little later
