Subject: RE: Repeating the first verse at the end
The later sessions at The Ship were very much folkie orientated, from a film that was made about it in the 70s, it had little to do with what had previously taken place there.
A far better impression of what took place can be got from 'Here's a Health to the Barley Mow' filmed in the 1950s.
It has just three songs and a couple of melodeon tunes on it; Barley Mow (Arthur Smith), Nutting Girl (Cyril Poacher), General Wolfe (Bod Scarce) and playing by Fred Pears and Bob Roberts.
Nostalgic, though not great singing.
