(Ahem.... I'll try that post again)

.. perhaps there should be more nudity in folk music...???

Anything to oblige.... especially if it gives me the opportunity to link to the 1953 Lomax/Kennedy recording at The Blaxhall Ship of an relatively unknown singer who, in my opinion, is one of the finest of the old English traditional pub singers. Here with the compelling image that -

He found a woman stark naked
With her hair pinned to the the ground

- is Bob Scarce singing 'Three Jolly Sportsmen' and if one person who hasn't heard Bob sing before can listen to it and appreciate the majesty of his singing then this thread will have served its purpose.


Lots of other magnificent singing and playing on that website, by the way....
