This really is an interesting song. I could only hear up the point of 1954, then I read snippy`s post and see he died in 1955. I will try to see if I can find and listen to this off site.

In reading that write-up, my mind went back to the movie `Deer Hunter.`

You are really finding some old music. I know you are having fun.

I have a neighbor friend who just purchased over two hundred 78`s for his victrola. It will be fun to see what he has discovered. He is in his eighties and lives a very busy life. He was in the service for 35 years. He shares his travel stories from around the globe and no matter the subject, he knows something about it. He is an avid reader. I always learn something new every time we speak.

Hi MM, I found the song to be haunting in nature. Like I wanted to listen to it over and over again, because I did not want it to end. Did it affect you this way?? Have you seen the movie Good Will Hunting? Well, I have not seen the movie, but am told the Waterboys sang their "Fisherman's Blues"song in the movie. I love this group.

uff' da!!
