A collage of the folk songs "Silver Dagger" and "Bedlam Boys" - both of which are thought by some ethnomusicologists to originate in London, (though Silver Dagger is also argued to be american in origina) - re-set in the time of the industrial revolution. Historical footage licenced courtesy of Critical Past.

  • I recognised Bedlam Boys as soon as you started playing this song at the gig last night, though I haven't heard the folk song for many, many years. Great interpretation! I'll share this video as much as I can.

  • no issues that i could detect dude!! all good, or rather lovely i'd say....

  • Well done Jordan. As always a masterpiece. All the best. Keith - Connemara Stone Company.

  • Wow...in Manchester where I was born they used to kidnap children off the streets to work in the Cotton Mills. Five year olds used to work in Coal Mines. Not an easy time for a child one way or the other. Beautifully sung a start contrast to the dark and disturbing images of outr Industrial Age.

  • Totally awesome!
