Now the afore-mentioned Maniacs and Mary Ramsay sang "Wildwood Flower" but it is not on any of Natalie Merchant's albums (not that I can find anyway!!) The site I found this information on is as follows...... http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=natalie+merchant Sorry if I'm telling you what you already know... best wishes, Yvonne |

25 Aug 04 - 12:08 PM (#1256411) Subject: RE: Help: wildwood flower by merchant From: Nerd Natalie Merchant recently released a CD of mostly old folk songs. It's on limited release only for the time being. It's called The House Carpenter's Daughter. |
25 Aug 04 - 12:13 PM (#1256422) Subject: RE: Help: wildwood flower by merchant From: Nerd Just to be clear, Wildwood Flower is not on the CD I mentioned above. But it IS on the new 2CD set 10,000 Maniacs Campfire Songs: The Popular, Obscure, & Unknown Recordings This is a collection of their b-sides, outtakes, etc. So that's why it's getting airplay, as this double CD is a recent release. |
