Subject: RE: Wintertime... and the whining is easy (songs)
good one Barry!
It is cold as heck here, much too early for this...they say it will be a rough winter. We need the snow, I guess.
I was in the Berkshires last weekend, saw loads of stars and did some winter hiking; lovely!
I like the traditional English ballad, "Sheep 'Neath the Snow"; tells the true story of a man who lost several thousand sheep to a snowstorm in Scotland in the 19th century...
Magpie Lane recorded it.
