Thread Name: Songs by Leon Rosselson
Subject: RE: Leon Rosselson Songs
His song "the Digger Song" is an anthem-- one which tells a story both from long ago but relevent today. It starts: "In 1649, to St. George's Hill, a raqgged band they call the diggers came to show the people's will" Also called World Turned Upside Down, it is in the Digital Traditons data base, (see link above) I hope he is singing this one presently--I have never heard him...yet.
