I'd link to it but my new computer isn't linking to Mudcat at the moment so I'm using my trusty old one that doesn't like Youtube - watching on one and writing on the other. Sorry I can't be more helpful but it is there along with lots of other songs he sings. Lovely views of Zennor too. Robyn |

I did try a search on YouTube myself before coming to mudcat but all I got was American songs. This song is needed for a play my friend is putting on about a Cornish tin miner who was the first Cornishman to play rugby for England. It is a true story and his granddaughter is a member of our theatre. There are several Cornish songs in the play but this one was the only one I couldn't find the tune for and now I have. Thank you again. You have made my day! |
