Subject: RE: Review: Lonnie Donegan - Rock Island Line
Well to me Lonnie Donegan sounds as good today as he did in the 50's: I've just rediscovered his material on CD and I've done the journey of LD to Lead Belly etc back to Nic Jones etc. Some of the other skifflers were pretty grim, however. I agree with Smedley about 'Nobody's Child'; LD must have liked it as he recorded it twice.
