Subject: RE: Kate Rusby - 'My Music'
You are right Recruited Collier was not a Yorkshire song as such but I do agree that all the sentiments expressed and as sung by Kate can easily apply to the Yorkshire mining industry, as it could to any other mining area of the day
The beauty of the song is in its interpretation and delivery
Recruited Collier was also sung by Fred Jordan and was one of his favourites
