DH>  Do you know of any good RenFaire (ie: Rennaisance period)
DH>  filkers/filksongs/filktapes?  About the only Rennaisance music
DH>  I've got is "Dance of the Rennaisance".  It's quite good.
 
I like the tape; the music selection/titles are very period.  It's
very good listening.  Now, the following is my archive (from
renditions of Medieval tunes to Celtic folk music that's relatively
period) of tapes of Medieval-type music, with Celtic harp & other
stuff thrown in.  Try one or try all -- see what you like.
 
Olde English Madrigals and Folk Songs
Sung by the Cambridge Singers & directed by John Rutter
(c) 1984 by American Grammophone Records
"A capella" madrigals & other songs sung in an old English
cathedral.  Beautiful!  A personal favorite.
 
Brother Sun, Sister Moon
Sung by the Cambridge Singers & directed by John Rutter
(c) 1988 by American Grammophone Records
"A capella" choral music, including selected Gregorian chants, set
to follow the daily "offices."
 
Renaissance Fare
Performed by Tania Opland (vocal & instruments)
(c) 1987 Tania Opland
Nice arrangements of traditional tunes plus some original music.
Various periods.  Vocals & instrumental tunes.
 
The Queen's Minstrel
Performed by Therese Schroeder-Sheker
(c) 1988 Windham Hill Records
Mostly instrumental with a few songs sung.  Very Medieval with
period instruments.  Highly recommended.
 
A Maid In Bedlam
Performed by The John Renbourn Group
(c) 1977 Transatlantic Records Ltd.
Distributed by Shanachie Records Corp.
Very period.  Vocals (male & female) & instrumentals.  A favorite
of mine.
 
The Lady and The Unicorn
Performed by The John Renbourn Group
(c) 1986 Windham Hill Records
Instrumental pieces representing medieval, folk music & early
classical.  All played on hand instruments.  Good selections.
Another favorite.
 
Dreams of Annwfn
Performed by Katryn Jehane Price
(c) 1987 Priceless Productions
Celtic & Welsh tunes, instrumental & vocals.  Hammered & mountain
dulcimers, violin & dumbek.  Very nice arrangements.

    Well, don't kill me, Kay, but that little "mini-filk" you did for Bevin's been rolling around in this thick noggin and needs some EXPANDING upon...:)

Deep In Engineering (an anthropomorphic science-fiction horror story)
-+-------------------------------------------------------------------

(First Verse and Chorus [c] Kay Shapero, 1992)
-+--------------------------------------------

Deep in engineering down where mortals never go
A beaver is investigating all there is to know
He carries tools to open things and see what is inside
And through the room he'll go until he's seen it all or fried!

Chorus:
Three things come to mind
That any screwdriver can slip
That beavers sure are nosy
And we should ABANDON SHIP!

Now he starts dismemb'ring the navigation core
He's seen the entire ship all from aft to fore
But ev'rything is new, oh yes, and ev'rything is grand
And he'll be lucky to escape without losing a hand!

Chorus:  

Somewhere farther forward on the battlecruiser's bridge
They note their maps are incorrect by more than just a smidge
Security is sent aft to discover what is wrong
But all the doors seal at once with a mighty KLONG!

Chorus:

Lights and LEDs start to blink their warning signs
Never slowing down a beaver who has his own designs
Of how a thing should operate or how a light should flash
If we happen on some asteroids we're guaranteed to crash!

Chorus:

The engines rev up far too high, and from their moorings rip
The secondary power generators start to slip
Artificial gravity becomes the next to go
And life support, O help us God, is now creating snow!

Chorus:

Deep in engineering down where mortals never go
A young beaver's investigations have begun to slow
His tools are bent and mem'ry cores have all been tossed aside
And when we catch that little f**k, he'll wish that he'd've died!

Two things come to mind
When sailing upon starships
That beavers sure are nosy
And they don't go well with chips!

1. Contrary to a prevous post, according to _Too Many Songs_, Tom Lehrer's
 _Elements Song_ _IS_ copyrighted.  Yes, you can't copyright the names
of elements, just like you can't copyright words, but as soon as you've
put them in a specific order with an idea attatched to them, distributing
them without permission is messy.  This is speaking from experience.

2. Kay: Believe it or not, Duane Elms wrote Threes 1.1.  It's available
in _At the Helm_, his songbook.  If you buy it, tell Firebird that you want
the words on top of the notes.  Get all your friends to do it.  Start a
rebellion... :-)

3. Dave: If you find the chords to Finity's End, ME WANT THEM!!!  Thanks...

Speaking of which, does anyone have the chords to any of Fred Small's
later songs or know how we can get them?  Specifically, I'm looking for
_Scott and Jamie_, _Every Man_, and _If I were a moose..._.  Thanks...

   You cannot violate copyright laws by posting the WORDS to "The Elements"
   because mathematical theorems, fundamental laws of nature, etc. cannot be
   patented or copyrighted, and in any case Lehrer was just plagerizing the
   work of Dimitri Mendelev (plus a few guys at Berkely, Caltech, etc.)  As
   for the music, not only are Gilbert and Sullivan in another country, they
   also happen to be DEAD.

Nice try, but wrong.

The copyright is not on the words as such in the song, but on the
arrangement of them into stanzas with rhyme scheme, scansion, etc. Under
various copyright conventions, the US has agreed to honor copyrights granted
in other countries. Finally, death does not end copyright; the copyright
remains a part of the estate of the deceased, usually to be endlessly argued
about by the heirs.

One could not assert copyright solely on the phrase "Pee Vee equals en Are
Tee", but one could certainly copyright a song containing such a line.

The BEST/IDEAL approach, IMHO, and what the regular posting on the usenet side
(there will be a regular posting? cross-posted to news.answers?) wants to say
is something like:

"This newsgroup is gatewayed bidirectionally to the Fidonet FILK echo, the
rules for which are included as an appendix. Articles posted here not complying
with the rules of the Fidonet echo will not be gatewayed."

Unfortunately this requires manual intervention at the gateway site - is this
possible without Rick collapsing under the strain?

(Medieval music continued -- Part 3)
 
Another source of such music would be any of the Renaissance-type
fairs held all year-round across the nation.  Also good folk music
festivals--artists not generally found in music stores will sell
their tapes at festivals.  Check out the upcoming Summer Solstice
Dulcimer Festival, June 26-28, 1992 at Soka University in
Calabasas.
 
And finally, most SCA events will have a merchants' area and
sometimes someone will be selling tapes.  SCA music tends to be
*very* medieval by nature.  Production/recording quality can be
variable, however. but the music itself & performance style will be
very period.
 
Above all, have fun listening!  Look for me at the next LAFA filk at 
Kiwi House USA in Pasadena.

"Wayne's World" was licensed by the folks who own SNL. You would have to

No, among other things, there are a few that you'll likely have:

At one point Tom Lehr (sp??) did a song to the tune of "Modern Major-General"
in which he reads the periodic table of the elements.  Anybody have this one?

Also, anyone write a TNG version of "Star Trekkin'" yet?
(somebody has, I know it, I've heard it somewhere.  But... where?)

(Actually, Any of Lehr <sp PLEASE> 's songs will be great, if you've got em.)

As far as off-topic messages...such things happen on the Net fairly

DH>"Dance of the Rennaisance".  It's quite good.

Not filk, but some damn fine music by Glenn Morgan.  He has two
albums out right now.

Southwind               Cassette only
D is for Dulcimer       CD and Cassette

Both albums are strictly instrumental.

Southwind has ensemble of musicians and instruments.  Featuring Glenn
on Dulcimer.  Some of the folks who played on this album are familiar
in filk circles.  Heather Alexander, Sean O'Brian, Deirdre McCarthy
and Shelly Mathewson.

D is for Dulcimer is mostly dulcimer with some guitar backup by Jim
Wells.

I don't have the address handy, but will dig it out if anybody is
interested.
