I would just add a couple of observations to the posting
on this great band. First, one of Mark O'Connor's albums
thanks his teachers and lists Barbara Lamb, the fiddler
from Ranch Romance. I asked her about it; she told me
she was his first teacher when he was 11. Both are from
Seattle. I didn't ask her how old she was, but Mark
is now 31 or 32, so I'd assume Barbara was about 14 at
the time.

Second, the first time I saw them their accordion player
was ill and not touring with them. A local singer named
Chris Webster filled in and later toured Canada with
Ranch Romance. If you get a chance to see that configuration,
by all means go. Chris sang some of Jo's songs, such as
"Nevada Moon," better than Jo.

   I'm a big fan of Cheryl Wheeler and I fully recomend  the album called
"Circles and Arrows".  My favorite song of the album has to be "estate sale"
which is a great song about going into dead people's house and looking &
buying their stuff.  I think she has a great sense of humor that comes 
through strongly in her music.

I've heard recordings of Jimmie Driftwood singing it.  Also, the 
_complete_ words are in a Sing Out Reprints, including some verses 
that aren't in the Johnny Horton recording (would have made it too 
long - and maybe too political - for commercial radio).

end {excerpts}

If your record doesn't have verses that start like the above, it is 
incomplete.

Hmm. "You left footprints on my stomach" is indeed a song; I've forgotten the
name of the writer .... Dave ?Hughes?, but he was living in A2 for a while in
the mid '70's, then went to Japan. Michael Cooney sings it sometimes.
Chorus goes:
	I never knew a woman who could cook as good as you
	I gained nearly 15 (50?) pounds, and it's all because of you-ooo
	Well, I nearly lost my supper when you said we had to part
	You left your footprints on my stomach, when you walked out of my heart

Maybe he had the inspiration to write it from the Ramblers' idea? ... He
also wrote the rarely heard blues "The raging river of my tears has washed
out the bridge of my nose." [anyone out there have the full words to either
of these masterpieces?]

"I'm lonesome in the saddle ever since my old hoss died" has since made it
public as the initial line of "Cowpuncher", which John Roberts & Tony Barrand
sing; it probably has a known author but I don't have the album notes handy.
	" I am an old cow-puncher
	  I punch them cows so hard

Well, let's see...I know of different versions of this ballad that have 
been recorded by Kevin Roth ("Black Jack Davy"), Caswell & Carnahan (BJD), 
The Tannahill Weavers ("The Gypsy Laddie", twice), and Planxty ("Raggle 
Taggle Gypsy").  It's #200 in the Child collection, and has at least 120 
variations there (though I don't have anything like a complete edition of 
the Child ballads, so there may be more).

I don't intend this to be a flame, but it's not unusual for one person to
write a song and for another person to record it, even more than once.
Jimmy Driftwood wrote the lyrics; Johnny Horton recorded it and made 
such a hit out of it that it appears on several of Horton's albums.

There have been a few of these kinds of groups recently.  Another is the
Turtle Island String Quartet, with Darol Anger and David Balkrishnan.  Several
years ago I was fortunate enough to run the sound system for a group called
"Superstrings" in which Darol and David played in.  The group was founded 
by my old roommate, Joe Weed.  I ran sound for a group that he had played
in (Succotash) a year or so prior to the "Superstrings" gig.  Superstrings
was Darol Anger, David Balkrishnan, and Joe Weed on violin, someone who's
name I forget on viola, and the rythym section from a jazz group from 
Santa Cruz called Solar Plexus.  They arranged several old jazz standards
(Take the A Train, etc) such that the strings performed the horn parts. They
only did two shows.  They were both quite special.

Joe also has a couple (at least) albums that are in the bluegrass/newage
style, the first of which is called Whipporwill and is based on various
bird songs.  Joe plays mandolin, violin and guitar on the albums and founded
a string instrument organization.  I bet he'd know what frankenfiddle is.

I'm kinda new to Gorka's stuff, and I really like this new album, but...

I was really disappointed with "Brown Shirts."  The first time I listened to
the album, I was flipping thru the lyric book, and saw the words for
"Brown Shirts," and thought "Wow, cool lyrics!"  

But hearing it for the first time, I was completely unmoved by the
torpid execution.  Whatever bite the lyrics had, was gone during
the playing.  

Anyway, I really like the rest of the album, particularly 
"I Don't Feel Like A Train."

I will be going for a week long trip to London week 41, Oct 4th to 11th.
Having "discovered" British (and Celtic, not the least!) folk music fairly
recently, I would like to get to know more about it. But travel agents
here in Norway mostly tell you about musicals and Albert Hall concerts,
very little about folk.

Hints and suggestions from Londoners or others who knows what goes on
in greater London in early October will be greatly appreciated! Please

Organization: New Mexico Tech, USA

On the CD _The Red Crow_ by Altan (an excellent traditional-style group from
northwestern Ireland) there's a very nice tune called "Tommy Bhetty's Waltz".
It's credited to one Tommy "Bhetty" Maguire of Co. Fermanagh.

Does anyone know anything about the name or nickname "Bhetty"?  What does it
mean, if anything?  How should it be pronounced?  I would guess that the "bh"
should be pronounced "v" as in Irish, except that the rest of the spelling
doesn't look at all Gaelic.

Could it be a half-English spelling of an Irish word?  I know very little
Irish, but I have an Irish-English dictionary.  I've looked there (under both
"b" and "bh") and didn't see any word that looked likely.  Or is it supposed
to mean "of (some relation to) Betty"?  Any (informed) guesses?

 OK, since nobody seems to have brought it up, 

      Click Clack

aka Captain Beefheart.

This wonderful blues tune can be found on Spotlight Kid,
once from Reprise.
It's certainly an unmistakable train song.

By the way, I didn't see a mention of The Midnight Special!

I've got a slightly different version of this one around..  The tune is

Both songs are sourced as "traditional", so I could probably send you the

Well, after seeing this article, I pulled out the appropos records and looked

According to the Kingston Trio album, the credits are Rod McKuen/S. Yates.

The "Such is Love" album, alas, doesn't give any credits on their songs.

I have this song on a Shep Cooke album, and the credit is given as Lord

Mariah. Lerner and Loewe.

> Music Speaks Louder than Words
> 	(...it's the only thing that...) [Peter, Paul & Mary]

On "Such is Love". No credits, but likely to be Peter Yarrow.

> Such Is Love
> 	(After all I've come to know me...) [Peter, Paul & Mary]

Although the "Such is Love" album gives no credit, the song first appeared on
Peter Yarrow's "Love Songs". There, the credit is given to Peter Yarrow, Mary
Beth Music.

> Today
> 	(Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine...)

According to a John Denver album, the credit is: Sparks.
