He had an album on Sweet Folk and Country - Joe Stead would know. Dave came from Nottngham - so its almost ethnic. |

29 Jan 06 - 10:36 PM (#1657696) Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Sandy Paton (sans cookie, apparently) The late Rick Fielding gave us a fine "The Birth of Robin Hood" on his Folk-Legacy CD titled "Lifeline." (Folk-Legacy CD-123) Check the Folk-Legacy web site, which someone more clever than I can give you a "blue clicky thing" to reach (or, of course, you can "google" it). Sandy |

02 Feb 06 - 04:04 AM (#1659912) Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann @ open mike Thank you, too. Yes, also a good idea to make a research in the soundtracks of the old movies. |
02 Feb 06 - 04:06 AM (#1659913) Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann My thanks to everybody who answered to my request!!! |
02 Feb 06 - 04:08 AM (#1659914) Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann Thanks also to you, Sandy, too! I have found by myself endless ballad lyrics regarding RH, but what I really need is the melody, it doesn´t matter if in sheet music or in a recording. But recordings are really helpful. |
02 Feb 06 - 04:11 AM (#1659915) Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann And thanks to you, Barry, too. I will take care to buy this recording somewhere. At the moment I just collect the various song material, later I will choose out which could be the best one to record for a special project in 2006/2007. |
02 Feb 06 - 04:17 AM (#1659916) Subject: RE: Robin Hood - any good songs about him? From: GUEST,Lutz Eikelmann @ Sandy Paton Oh yes, I´ve found the Folk Legacy Website. Seems to be very helpful. Thanks again! |
