Thread Name: Lyr Add: Recitations from Marriott Edgar
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Recitations from Marriott Edgar
In my early folk club days on Merseyside in the mid-60s, there was a singer/guitarist called John Kanneen. He was terrific, and he used to do the Marriott Edgar monologues. I was particularly taken by the historical, or should be hysterical, ones. John used to deliver them in a animated manner. Although it's over 50yrs since I heard John and those monologues I bet that could recite my favourites by heart.
