Subject: Lafferty's Mounted Foot From: Gutcher Date: 16 Nov 10 - 12:10 PM Passing the country depot of the regional mounted police branch today, there came into my mind "Lafferty"s Mounted Foot". Is it a song or a tune? Irish?? Joe. |

Subject: RE: lafferty's mounted foot From: GUEST,^&* Date: 16 Nov 10 - 12:28 PM You thinking of THIS?. There's probably a version lying around here somewhere... |

Subject: RE: lafferty's mounted foot From: Gutcher Date: 16 Nov 10 - 04:04 PM Thanks, I probable heard it sung in the dim and distant past. Most likely on an early 1950s R.E. programme called the Ballad Makers Saturday Night, anyone remember this one? A P.F.song I do remember from this programme is "Cuttin" The Corn in Creeslough" I must make an effort to aquire the works of P.F. in book form. Joe. |
Subject: RE: lafferty's mounted foot From: Leadfingers Date: 16 Nov 10 - 04:08 PM Just shows how long ago I last heard the song !! I WAS Thinking Percy French though ! |
Subject: RE: lafferty's mounted foot From: Steve Gardham Date: 16 Nov 10 - 06:55 PM I think I've got the sheet music somewhere, Gutcher. It's Shlathery's Mounted Fut and it is PF. |
Subject: RE: lafferty's mounted foot From: Joe Offer Date: 16 Nov 10 - 07:05 PM As ^&* said, it's in the Digital Tradition - but the text is flawed and the title is wrong. Mick Bracken posted the lyrics in this thread. When Mick Bracken posts lyrics, they're usually right. The thread also has links to MIDIs for the melody. -Joe- |
