15 - The Cruel Ship's Carpenter
Manage episode 274097335 series 31561
Roud 15 is called "The Cruel Ship's Carpenter," but if you know it, it would probably be as "Pretty Polly." And old English song about a brutal, calculated murder which became an American bluegrass standard, this song has a well-traced history behind it.
In this episode, I bring along Paul Slade of http://www.planetslade.com/ to talk about it with me.
