* The Location or Cross Reference column contains the name of the book or recording, plus the name of the author or performer. The column may also contain capitalised initials, representing the identity of one of my friends whose books or recordings are in the index. If words and music were composed by different people, the author of the words is preceded by "w:", and the composer of the music is preceded by "m:". The column also contains the name of the composer, if known. * The Title column contains the name of the song or tune, and for some songs a distinctive phrase from the chorus or from a verse. The index has somewhat outgrown its origins. It had been annoying me to have to pull out many albums to find the one song I wanted. The index began very modestly as a homegrown database to enable me to locate songs in my collection of about 30 vinyl albums. The emphasis is on traditional folk songs in the English language, though there are songs in other languages (notably French), modern folk songs, and some instrumentals.

This is an index of the folk songs in books and recordings in my collection, plus some of the books and recordings in the collections of friends. Home > Personal > Folk Song Index > R - S
