I imagine Steeleye Span will more than once have done "Rag Doll" or "To Know Him Is To Love Him", but these were songs already associated with the band through inclusion on albums. Colin Randall Salut! Live * without knowing, according to Jerry Donahue, who was in Fotheringay, that Memphis Tennessee took its name from Memphis on the Nile, which is a bit of shame. |
