Description
Archival recordings of folk songs from Essex traditional singers. Harry Green was one of the finest folk singers from the county of Essex. He was ninety three, in 1967, when his classic ballads, country songs and comic recitations were recorded by the renowned folk song collector Fred Hamer. On this compilation are four other fine Essex traditional singers with songs which also give a snap-shot of a bygone life from all corners of this vibrant rural and coastal county. -
