A search on YouTube for "Isla Cameron, Ewan MacColl" brings up many, if not all, of the tracks from Still I Love Him. LFF |

I found more details somewhere, cannot remember where but they are around... (he says unhelpfully!) |

04 Feb 21 - 02:43 PM (#4091487) Subject: RE: Appeal for particular recording From: Reinhard Reissue is not totally correct. Both albums share 10 songs but each album has songs that are not on the other one. But "Still I Love Him" is one of three albums that comprise the 2010 budget CD "Ewan MacColl: The Anthology". Unfortunately this is of quite poor sound quality, probably a direct LP to CD transfer without proper remastering. |

05 Feb 21 - 02:23 AM (#4091547) Subject: RE: Appeal for particular recording From: Tony Rees The tracks with Ralph Rinzler were presumably recorded while Ralph was resident in London, which I understand was from 1957 to 1959, when he returned to New York (information from Richard Gagne, "Ralph Rinzler, Folklorist: Professional Biography". Available on the web via Google Search. He was mainly occupied in accompanying Dominic Behan, A.L. Lloyd and Ewan MacColl according to that source, before returning to the U.S. where he started the Greenbriar Boys. |
