And it's not Archie's, if I recall correctly. I'm at work now, but will check when I get home. I seem to remember that there is a citation of the poet and some info on the poem in Archie's liner notes. It's a lovely thing. Guess I'm used to Archie's accent; I understand every word. Kathy |

04 Feb 03 - 10:37 PM (#882788) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Black Horse by Archie Fisher From: GUEST,Stewie Kath, The booklet to the Greentrax CD attribute it to Fisher. There is no note in the booklet, just '"The Black Horse" Archie Fisher vocals/words'. The back of the CD reads: 'Many of the landmarks of my adopted Borders homeland are mentioned on "The Black Horse", a song without a melody'. --Stewie. |
