Subject: bonnie jean cameron From: GUEST,t_m_hall@yahoo.com Date: 10 Nov 00 - 08:44 PM I am searching for the lyrics and background information for a song called "Bonnie Jean Cameron". I've heard a version by Kornog, but can't find anything on the net. Any help would be appreciated. TMH |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: bonnie jean cameron From: Quincy Date: 11 Nov 00 - 02:12 PM I've searched and could only find out that Alan McFayden wrote the tune played by Kornog to the traditional lyrics. Sorry no lyrics as yet! best wishes with your search, Yvonne |
Subject: Lyr Add: BONNIE JEAN CAMERON From: John P Date: 14 Nov 00 - 09:12 AM This is from the liner notes from the Kornog "Premiere" album: A lovely song, once again with a tune by Alan McFadyen, Jean Cameron was a strong supporter of the Jacobites, and was, at least in the song, in love with Prince Charles of Scotland, the "Young Pretender". She is buried in East Kilbride, near Glasgow, where there is a street called Mount Cameron Drive, named after her family. The words come from the collection "Ancient Scots Ballads" bu George Eyre Todd. "Aye blythe blink" means something like "one kind, cheerful glance."

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: bonnie jean cameron From: Mac Tattie Date: 01 Jul 02 - 02:14 PM It's a long time since I last saw Alan, several Girvan festivals ago, at that time he was working for "The Sun" in London. cheers |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: bonnie jean cameron From: Susanne (skw) Date: 01 Jul 02 - 06:42 PM John P, thanks for posting the lyrics. I have Mick West's fine recording, but hadn't got round to copying them out. A useful book on the involvement of women in the '45 (including Jean Cameron) is Maggie Craig's Damn Rebel Bitches. The Women of the '45, published by Mainstream in 1997 (ISBN 1 85158 962 7). |
