FTX-609 - TAPIOCA'S
BIG TOE
Traditions of Tristan de Cunha
A South Atlantic Island preserves English traditions, songs,
dances, dialect and customs in a time warp - these recordings were
made by Peter Kennedy and Maud Karpeles in 1962 - Basil &
Percy Lavarello (accordion) with Mary Swain doing most of the singing
and talking |
