Do any of you who are claiming that Arthur McBride is `Traditional Irish'
have any evidence that it is?  I was under the impression that most
collected versions had come from England. I'd be interested to hear of
any factual evidence anyone might have for placing its origin (rather
than its occurrence) in Ireland.

Cheers,

This was written by Bobby Sands, one of the IRA hunger strikers who died in Long
Kesh prison in Ireland in the early eighties. He was elected as a British Member
of Parliament while in prison. He wrote a number of songs of which my favourite
is "McIlhatton". Christy Moore also sings that one.

Like the one I've heard of, the last bit of which is
 
"...if this land's your land
you'll never know it
Let's get together
And overthrow it!
This land was made for you and me..."

Anyone know if this was actually one of the original verses?

She will have a new release coming out in early 1993, this one of cover songs.
The title is from a Truman Capote novel, something about "Other Voices" --
"Other Voices, Other Rooms" perhaps?  I've heard some of the people on there
and although Indigo Girls are the only ones I can remember, I do remember
thinking that this is some high-powered talent she's gathered for this album.

The song is "Joanne" by Mike Nesmith (former Monkee) from his
First solo album I seem to recall. Its also on his greatest 
hits(yes really!). He also has a CD called "the older stuff"
which probably has it too.

He alleges that the song is about a cow!

He asks for $15 + $2 for shipping and handling.  When I ordered from

"Through" and "Retrospective" were available--I don't know about the
availablilty of anything else.  While you're at it, ask to be put on

I just saw an ad in OPTION magazine advertizing a CD reissue of 
'The French Album', on Hannibal.  I don't recall what company released
the original.

I'm waiting for 'Love Over and Over' to come out, myself.  My vinyl
copy has seen better days, as has my (now variable-speed) turntable.

Currently they are signed to Private Music, (run by Peter Baumann, formerly

Seems like everyone is listing contemporary stuff. Here are
some artists you might consider from the past:

Leadbelly
Dave Van Ronk (the album with "Zen Koan's Gonna Rise Again",
               "Sings the Blues", with the incredible "Dink's
               Song")
Jack Elliot (any of the Vanguard stuff especially the one with
             "Guabi Guabi", "Young Brigham" LP with the immortal
             talking blues, "912 Green St.")
Mississippi John Hurt (the Testament Sessions)
Judy Henske
Judy Collins (the first few Elektra albums)
Eric Anderson
Bert Jansch
Davy Graham
Ewan McColl
the New Lost City Ramblers
the Jim Kweskin Jug Band
John Fahey

I wish my memory were better, and that my records were here
with me at work, but perhaps this will inspire people who
remember these artists.

I'm not sure, but when he toured the States once in the early '80's
and I heard him in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, he did a song that he
discovered only words to in a book of revolutionary and radical
American songs and poems, I think edited by Phil Foner.  The words
were by one of the four Yiddish labor poets I mentioned in an
earlier post on political folk music, probably David Edelshtat or
Joseph Bovshover, more likely the latter.  Perhaps that's the
song Jack's thinking of.

	Stan might have, if it was a real incident.  I've never
considered the question before, since while it was obvious that it
happened on one of the Great Lakes, it never seemed to matter which
one.  Below is my best guess, though. 

	While I'm not familiar with the Great Lakes region, either,
two minutes with an atlas led me to a guess of Lake Huron.  The song
mentions Wiarton, Ontario as the home of the fiance' of the "kid", and
the liner notes indicate that many of the towns residents ship on the
lakes.  Wiarton is on Lake Huron.  The only other place reference I
get from the song is "...as we roll North to the 'Soo'."  I'll take a
WAG that this refers to Sault Ste. Marie, on the Northwest end of Lake
Huron.

I typically buy Shanachie and Green Linnet albums from Elderly Instruments,

the way to go if you're looking for discounts; CD stores have too many

Fordham University's station, WFUV (90.7FM), has City Folk
which features all sorts of acoustic music and is aired 
Mon - Thurs. 10:00am - 2:00pm and Fri 10:00 - 1:00pm.

On Friday it is followed by Mountain Stage.
Saturday features 1000 Welcomes (Irish trad.), Thistle & Shamrock,
and another airing of Mountain Stage. On Sunday, there's Irish
from either 12 noon or 12:30pm until 4:00pm.

I know it can be heard pretty well for at least 75 mile range of
the Bronx campus. I'm not sure how well the signal travels to New Haven,
but it shouldn't be any problem in Northern NJ.
