Subject: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Peg Aloi Date: 14 Dec 99 - 04:14 PM Anyone have these? The one that begins: "On the night that I was married, and in my marriage bed.." It may also be known as "The Lowlands of Holland" but this is what I have heard it called. Thanks! Peg |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Date: 14 Dec 99 - 05:36 PM There are several 'Lowlands of Holland' in the database. The one closest to what I sing is Lowlands #4 I think Herbert Hughes collected that one. Do a DigiTrad search for [Lowlands of Holland] to get the other versions Incredible, I have Radio Ulster playing and Colum Sands just started playing Dolores Keane singing 'The Lowlands of Holland'. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Bruce O. Date: 14 Dec 99 - 05:47 PM The tune "The Shoemaker's (Suttors/ Souters) Daughter" is in 'The Scots Musical Museum', #470, to a song by Robert Burns. I don't know of any old verses to it. There's no connection to "The Lowlands of Holland" which is also in SMM, #115. See the Scots tunes index on my website for some additional info on both tunes. www.erols.com/olsonw

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Date: 14 Dec 99 - 05:49 PM version #4 also #2; there are 12 variants altogether on the list |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: peg Date: 15 Dec 99 - 01:29 PM hmm...well this is somewhat helpful; not meaning gee how lame, but only I was hoping someone could recommend a recording. The one I heard recently was on A Celtic Sojourn so maybe I will email Brian... also Cordelia's Dad recorded a version. Thanks very much! Which album is that Dolores Keane version on, I wonder? peg |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: peg Date: 15 Dec 99 - 01:32 PM Had some trouble with some of those links but did manage to get the lyrics of the Sandy Denny version; thanks again! I might have it on a recently-purchased Childs Ballads LP, too, that I have not had a chance to listen to yet...

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Philippa Date: 15 Dec 99 - 01:57 PM As far as I recall both Tommy Maken and his mother Sarah Maken have recorded The Lowlands of Holland. And also Martin Carthy. You could search the web to get details of available recordings. And I think some of the DigiTrad entries have notes about recordings. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Wolfgang Date: 16 Dec 99 - 04:46 AM and Anne Byrne, but you couldn't get that old record now. Wolfgang |
Subject: Tune Req: The Shoemakers Daughter From: GUEST Date: 25 Sep 03 - 07:25 PM Does anyone know the B part to the tune "The Shoemaker's Daugher" (or the whole tune)? It's written (I'm pretty sure) by Ed Reavey. Thanks I moved this message here from another thread on the same topic. This one and messages below are from a new thread. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: The Shoemakers Daughter From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 25 Sep 03 - 10:43 PM I don't know the song "The Shoemakers Daughter" I don't even know the joke about "The Shoemakers Daughter", but I do know lots like She was only the jockeys' daughter, but all the horse manure... :-) Robin |
Subject: RE: Lyr/tune Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Joe Offer Date: 25 Sep 03 - 11:50 PM You can find the tune for Shoemaker's Daughter (click) at JC's ABC Tunefinder. Looks like we never answered the lyrics request, unless it actually is a version of "Lowlands of Holland." -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: Lyr/tune Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Jim Dixon Date: 27 Sep 03 - 02:23 AM I believe the tune that our GUEST asked for on 25-Sep-03 is completely different from THE LOWLANDS OF HOLLAND. A reel called THE SHOEMAKER'S DAUGHTER was composed by Ed Reavy. It is performed by Maeve Donnelly on fiddle on 2 albums: "Irish Traditional Music in America: The Music of Ed Reavy," and "Celtic Dances: Jigs & Reels from Ireland." Sound samples can be found at Barnes&Noble. |
Subject: Tune Req: THE SHOEMAKER'S DAUGHTER From: GUEST Date: 03 Oct 03 - 12:27 AM Does anyone know where I can find sheetmusic/recordings of the tune "The Shoemaker's Daughter"? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! I moved this message here from another thread on the same topic. |
Subject: RE: Lyr/tune Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: GUEST,MMario Date: 03 Oct 03 - 01:53 PM if it's the same as the fiddle tune then it is at JC's Tunefinder |
Subject: RE: Lyr/tune Req: The Shoemaker's Daughter From: Charley Noble Date: 03 Oct 03 - 02:52 PM Robin- Really, you should be ashamed of yourself. She was only a Shoemaker's Daughter, But exceedingly well-heeled! Do post to the Oz Foray thread from Maine and Guam. Brett needs your advice on places to stay in Brisbane, in between trains. Cheerily, Charley Noble |
