Thread Name: Origins: All Around My Hat
Subject: RE: Origins? All around my hat
Thanks, guys. The one I knew was probably ALL AROUND MY HAT (I will wear the Green Willow) or near enough. Seems to be a very stable text. Tunes don't vary much either. I have one from Creighton in Maritime Folk Song (1962) that's also much the same. Thanks for the Cockney sets. I've never seen that before. There's a nice photy of the veggie seller at the Levy song sheets. Printed in NY with a reputed writer and composer but undated. Levy collection, sample 2 (The words are on the other example - a bit more spoken parts than the Am Memory set.)
