Cuckoo's Nest - Ashley Hutchins and Friends

[promerops]

Great song and performance. Interesting how sex comes up in so many traditional songs, including the blues. Mankind's great obsession and nothing wrong with it, either!

[Shadowrikky]

Thanks alot! Great song

I have Jon Ricklin and John Lee to thank for my introduction to this genre when I was a young teen.

Dave Mattacks' drumming is brilliant!

[Wraaaul]

We sing this around the camp fire at re-enactment musters, its such a great song!

[Devlinski]

O yes! my fault.... me listening to wrong tune? ta

[Kegwithlegs]

luv this LP and the 2nd one that came out. I still have them, safely tucked away! Does anyone still make music like this???

[brunanburh]

So pleased I've found something from Morris on! Brilliant

[Devlinski]

But this is not the same tune as "Cuckoos Nest> i.e. Dave Swarbrick etc. does this tune go under any other name?

[hawkmoon03111951]

I don't know of any other name for the tune. You often find more than one tune to a song in English folk, or different songs to the same tune. It can get confusing.

@Devlinski

It's the same Cuckoo's Nest Swarbrick etc. does

[Devlinski]

but it isnt the same tune as other versions of cuckoos nest, is this one known by any other name?

[Devlinski]

Is this a Traditional "Tune?" please tell?

[hawkmoon03111951]

Yes this is a traditional tune.
