12 Oct 99 - 08:31 PM (#123214) Subject: The Old Fish Song From: ricklee@pobox.com I remember this song from an NLCR recording in the 60's. Digitrad has the lyrics, but says only: "From Mike Seeger's singing @religious filename[ OLDFISH DP oct97" and does not cite Mike's source. I have the LP but not the notes. Can someone help me with information about the origins of Mike's version? Thanks, Rick http://pobox.com/~ricklee |
