Subject: RE: Tunes - their place in the tradition
Amazing coincidence, Ruth.
I've got a gig in a maritime museum tomorrow and the theme is songs about being away from home at Christmas. At the last minute I've decided to include Jona's 'Stop the Cavalry' which I've just tried out on the melodeon & it sounds good. Robin Garside who's doing the gig with me rang up earlier today and he's up for it too.

(Don't anybody tell Jona though or the PRS!) If the PRS are snooping the gig's in Hull, Canada.

BTW the rest of the songs will be trad and rather loosely away from home, Adieu Sweet Lovely Nancy, Rolling Home to Merry England, Leaving of Liverpool, Send back my Barney, Mermaid, Lady Franklin's Lament etc etc.
