From: Joe Offer I was looking through the database in connection with the "songs about singers" thread, and I came across the lyrics for Pete Sutherland's AUNT SUE (click, please). It sounds like it would be a wonderful song to learn. Can anybody post the tune, or do you know where I could find a (CD) recording of the song? I know it's on Pete's Flying Fish cassette, "Poor Man's Dream," but I save my money for CDs. -Joe Offer- |

Pete is on facebook, and I believe he still has copies of 'poor mans' for sale. HIGHLY recommended listening! |

It's a beautiful melody played at a lively rhythm. Hope somebody else can help. I saw and admired Pete (and Karen's) performances at the Champlain Valley Folk Festival.What an accomplished fiddler and singer he is! |

Not the same song as Sutherland's, of course; this one was written by P. Dunkirk and The Blenders. Just thought I'd toss that in. |
