Subject: RE: What are you working on right now?
Hey, Wavestar, how about Burns' "All the Airts the Wind Can Blaw" for your courting friend? It's sweet, and short. WW, I too am working out "Farewell to the Gold" just now. And also am working on "Now Westlin Winds" and "The Fisherman's Wife," and am wrestling with the challenge of not accidentally lapsing into a faux Scots accent! Argggh! I don't WANT to do it, I don't MEAN to do it, but I'm having trouble avoiding it once words like "twa" and "bairn" and "cushat" show up. Send help immediately! Well, back here in America... I am also working on "Calling the Moon," a Dar Williams song sung by Richard Shindell on his newest album. Margaret
