Subject: RE: DTStudy: Beautiful Dreamer
Richie: thanks for the notes, The details from the "Traditional Ballad Index" should have been in my first post.
The point of these DTStudies is to point out corrections to the songs already held in the DT, and to offer a chance to make any further clarifications, or add any supplementary notes, before the song is re-cast into the DT in a new hopefully complete/correct form (or in a choice of forms, each seperately identified).
The first of these DTStudies is less than a year old, and several of them have brought together information sources which had prevously not been compared.
The DTStudy is an opportunity to add to the knowledge offered in the DT whilst avoiding the BS (as an 'edited thread' any BS creeping in can be excised)
