Subject: RE: DT Attribution & Minor Corrections PermaThread
Please see my post on the 'Funny Songs With Colours In Titles' thread, re errors in DT notes on The Brown & Yellow Ale -- mistakenly given under title, from an error of hearing by an American singer once, as Brown & Yellow Earl [sic].
This error should be emended.

I think you are correct, Mike. We have two songs: - The Brown and the Yellow Ale
- The Brown and Yellow Earl - which is the version by my neighbor and former boss, former topless folksinger Debby McClatchy. Apparently, she has acknowledged the error in recent years. We probably should add explanation or drop Debby's version.
