Subject: RE: Origins: Coming of the Roads (Billy Edd Wheeler)
It's a song I've always loved, especially the melody, since I got the Judy Collins album way back. I sing it in G, which makes highest note C over an octave above. About the same range as many Burns songs, but then they use melodies that were borrowed from the fiddle repertoire.
