Quarrymen's Work-songs & Chants recorded by Peter Kennedy in 1954
at Easton, on the Isle of Portland, near Weymouth, Dorset - a remarkable
survival of the landsman's equivalent of the sea-shanty - among those explaining
the processes were Harry HOUNSELL, George STONE, Joe WHITE and Jack STEWKESBURY
- with talk about Reaming-up - Portland jacks - wreck of the French ship
- leadership - apprentices - working in companies. |
