Subject: RE: Imaginary places in song??
Well, Gillygilly ? I don't know,--Hossenfeffer,or Harsenpfeffer is,I think something like spicy Rabbit Stew, or Jugged Hare ( it's in a Bugs Bunny cartoon,where he nearly becomes the main ingredient !! ).
   And KatzenEllenBogen ?? Yes,it's a real town in what used to be East Germany ,according to German music critic Anne Marcordes of Bielefeld where I lived for a while. But not neccessarily by the sea !! Katzenellenbogen,that is,not Bielefeld !
