Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: Big Al Whittle Date: 29 Jan 06 - 10:25 AM Dave Turner wrote a good one called 'ban the bow' don't know if anybody's got the words. He had an album on Sweet Folk and Country - Joe Stead would know. Dave came from Nottngham - so its almost ethnic. |

Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: SINSULL Date: 29 Jan 06 - 10:40 AM Lutz, My favorite is Lonesome Robin. Helen Shneyer has a wonderful recording of it and it's a favorite at song circles in the States. But it not traditional. Welcome! SINS |

Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 29 Jan 06 - 03:20 PM There was an at times contentious Folklore thread that delved into Robin Hood lore. SRS |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Sandy Paton (sans cookie, apparently) Date: 29 Jan 06 - 10:36 PM The late Rick Fielding gave us a fine "The Birth of Robin Hood" on his Folk-Legacy CD titled "Lifeline." (Folk-Legacy CD-123) Check the Folk-Legacy web site, which someone more clever than I can give you a "blue clicky thing" to reach (or, of course, you can "google" it). Sandy |

Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: Barry Finn Date: 30 Jan 06 - 11:44 AM I hear tell that our Art Thieme does a very nice version of 'The Death of Robin Hood'. Barry |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann @SINSULL Date: 02 Feb 06 - 04:03 AM Thanks, Sins, that sounds interesting. There is no need to be a traditional. Just want to know a good song which can be covered or new arranged in a recording project. |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann @ open mike Date: 02 Feb 06 - 04:04 AM Thank you, too. Yes, also a good idea to make a research in the soundtracks of the old movies. |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann Date: 02 Feb 06 - 04:06 AM My thanks to everybody who answered to my request!!! |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann Date: 02 Feb 06 - 04:08 AM Thanks also to you, Sandy, too! I have found by myself endless ballad lyrics regarding RH, but what I really need is the melody, it doesn´t matter if in sheet music or in a recording. But recordings are really helpful. |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann Date: 02 Feb 06 - 04:11 AM And thanks to you, Barry, too. I will take care to buy this recording somewhere. At the moment I just collect the various song material, later I will choose out which could be the best one to record for a special project in 2006/2007. |
Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann @ Sandy Paton Date: 02 Feb 06 - 04:17 AM Oh yes, I´ve found the Folk Legacy Website. Seems to be very helpful. Thanks again! |
