Subject: Origins: Child Ballads resource From: GUEST,# Date: 09 Mar 21 - 09:43 AM I tripped over the following site while looking for something else. Thought it might be a good resource for people interested in such things. Just click on the song title. https://www.childballadrecordings.com/child-ballads?ballad_id=215 https://www.childballadrecordings.com/child-ballads?ballad_id=215 |
Subject: RE: Origins: Child Ballads resource From: Reinhard Date: 09 Mar 21 - 11:02 AM That is Roel 'Halewijn' van Dijk's Child Ballad Database. It used to be in a very spartanic layout at http://members.chello.nl/r.vandijk2/index.html . This old link still worked in April 2020 but seems to have gone by now. But even the new site exists for some years by now. |

Subject: RE: Child Ballads resources From: Bill D Date: 09 Mar 21 - 06:48 PM "Halewijn" and "Audie O.Fyle" posted most of those on USENET in 2010. This was done in two parts... as a first run, then as 'remnants' that were missed the first time. They were available for as long as a good newsserver cared to retain them...from one to 4-5 years. I can't find any place that still has them. (I think there were 4-5 thousand of them posted.) |

Subject: RE: Child Ballads resources From: Bill D Date: 10 Mar 21 - 11:39 AM In the link http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/ballads/ One mention is of Bruce Olson's 'website', which is now hosted here at Mudcat. You can find it at 'quick links' at the top or at: https://mudcat.org/olson/viewpage.cfm Many interesting and arcane items from his years of research. His Mudcat posts are still available with a search. |
