Thread Name: 'Singing Together' - BBC Song Booklets
Subject: RE: 'Singing Together' 1958 UK
What was the title of
'Once there was a wild rose gay, on the moorland growing,
Till a careless boy at play chanced to see the tempting spray
On the moorland grow-ow-ing' ?
Sung by a shrill soprano, but nonetheless memorable.

All time favourite was 'Marianina'.

The first song I sang in a folk club c1965 was the chantey Sally Brown which I remembered from ST. Loved all the well-known chanteys.

All done in Donny! Marvellous. I thought all Donny was famous for was the Steam engine sheds. Ah, those were the days!
