Subject: some interesting ballads on MP3 From: Bill D Date: 27 Mar 01 - 10:29 AM found this on rec.music.folk...David Kilpatrick Oe'r The Castle Wall: full length CD of ballads from the Anglo-Celtic tradition of heartwarming, tragic, nasty and thoroughly vicious wee stories about lovers, murder, elopement, and the healthy couldn't-care-a-toss attitude of man towards his fellow woman... http://www.mp3.com/stations/castlewall Lo-fi play: Hi-fi (128Kb modem/cable or ISDN) Tracklist: Blackwater Side - classic Anglo-Irish song which includes getting naked Matty Groves - classic Anglo-anywhere song, which includes getting naked Ritchie Storey - little known Scottish song which is fully clothed throughout She Moved Through The Fair - classic fake folk song, fun to ham up. Modal. Twa Corbies - dreech Scots poem set to a Breton air, strictly for the birds Annochie Gordon - great words, guaranteed to clear any pub in eight minutes The Trees They Do Grow High - from the days before the age of consent at 16 Young Waters - nasty Scots king chops head off good looking lad Jack O'Ryan - apprentice Irish fiddler nicks boss's groupie by trick. Familiar? Willie o'Winsbury - Scots king comes out of closet. Can't resist that red silk. Baron o'Brackley - wife shames husband into outnumbered fight... on purpose! |
