Thanks!

That does appear to represent a holding of the (sheet ...?) music - but I can't get any view of what they actually have. I'm not wrapped in the idea of paying up front ... and finding it isn't what I'm after.

I'll see what my friends in the NLA can suss out ... from within the organisation ... before I shell out blind on something that I just need to see to support someone else's query!

At least the Mudcat has been the first site that actually recognises any more than just the first stanza of the song ... indeed, Australia's iconic country & western style singe Slim Dusty issues a recording of The Rose in Her Hair that only uses the first stanza ... twice ... each sandwiched between ...

Oh-de-lay-ee-ay-ee-ay-ee-dee
Oh-de-lay-ee-ay-ee-ay-ee-dee
Oh-de-lay-ee-ay-ee-ay-ee-dee
When I finally went, I went home with the scent
Of the rose in her hair ...
... twice!

Regard(les)s,

Bonb
