Thread Name: Lyr Add: Rise Up Jock (Bob Pegg)
Subject: RE: Add: Rise Up Jock: original version
My transcription in the DT is pretty accurate. I just listened to the record again.
Malcolm -I had never heard of Bob Pegg, but first heard John Roberts and Tony Barrand in 1970. They were my first exposure to British harmony singing, which lead me to Young Tradition, Watersons and then Coppers. At least some of their older recordings are still around and some are fairly recent. I definately recommend them. You can get Dark Ships in the Forest (supernatural songs) from Folk Legacy and others from Camsco.
Modest, aren't you, Anglo. Thanks for the definitive answer on that version.
