Thread Name: Lyr Req: Barlow Knife Chant
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Barlow Knife Chant
When Allan C and I toured the USA a couple of years ago we searched for two things with musical connections, one was a plastic Jesus for the car dashboard which we never found and the other was a Barlow Knife. which also we didn't find. However a few months after I returned to the UK Allan sent me a package and wraped in tissue paper was a Barlow Knife. It doesn't look much but it is a good reliable knife and treasured because of the US trip connection. Allan Block has been to Old Songs in New York State the last two times I have been there, It was from a recording by Allan that I first heard the song.
Cheers Bill
