Would like to get it right - cheers |

I have sung Stone & Wood for quite a while, it is one of my favourite songs and one that so many people fall in love with. It reminds me of the hours I have spent in Warnham church (Sussex)tracing through papers while researching our family history. The words of the last verse are especially wonderful. Thank you for writing & recording the song & putting mer right with the words. Carole xx PS & Thank you Joe |

It's one of my own favourite lyrics, and , as I always say, a song not sung is a dead song.I remember distinctly it being delivered (they arrive like E mails you know) as I walked round our local church and I knew I had to get it down quickly so it was actually written on two blank pages torn from an old hymn book with the pen attached to the visitors book. I then had to walk home quickly humming the tune and get it down on tape. |

02 Aug 02 - 04:06 PM (#758922) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Stone & Wood (Harvey Andrews) From: harvey andrews Sorry, haven't the facilities to do that myself. It's on my C.D. "25 years on the road" (next year is the 40th!!)However, if you'd like to contact me personally and send a tape I'll be glad to record it for you to sing if you don't wish to get the c.d. |
