Thread Name: Origins: My Love Is But a Lassie Yet + Dark Girl
Subject: Origins: My Love is but a Lassi & The Dark Girl
We were playing a few tunes last night & I recorded these two:
'My Love is but a Lassie Yet' & 'The Dark Girl Dressed in Blue'
Kathleen Smyth Fiddling on the Causeway Coast.
Now I had always thought of these two tunes as being Scottish, but I understand that many people claim they are from the South of England, others the North of England & yet more think of them as Irish.
Does anyone here have the answer?
Cheers
Dick
