11 Jun 03 - 04:07 PM (#966003) Subject: RE: Looking For Music For John Tams From: GUEST,jennifer It's similar, but not quite the same as on the Sharpe album, so far as I can tell from some very dodgy playing by sight! Some of the lines start the same then wander off at a tangent. |

12 Jun 03 - 07:46 PM (#966628) Subject: RE: Looking For Music For John Tams From: GUEST,Diane Thanks for the hell regarding Johnny Is Gone For A Soldier I have managed to get some cord info regarding that one now I'm just looking for the other one Colliers Recruit. It is sung by Kate Rusby on the album I have so I'm not sure if it one of her's or one of John Tams or if it is an old traditional song. Any info regarding that one is much required since I have to give it to my new guitarist to learn by the 28th of this month :o). Here's hoping someone out there can help. Thanks Diane |

12 Jun 03 - 08:02 PM (#966635) Subject: RE: Looking For Music For John Tams From: McGrath of Harlow "The Recruited Collier" was printed as a broadssheet and also in an early collection of Cumbrland ballads in the early 19th century. That's what Karl Dallas says in his collection "The Cruel Wars" (1972) - mind he has "words and music: Karl Dallas" at the head of the version he gives - but I don't think that's intended to be taken as meaning anything. Maybe he tweaked the tune or the words. |

I'm wanting to sing it at Christmas this year and need some chords to get my accompanist started. Concertina would be ideal, but guitar would also be great. Thanks! |
