Song: "Rachel Wall's Last Good-Night"

[teenybuffalo]

So, I a song. Rachel Wall's Last Good-Night. I've been meaning to post this since I wrote it in October 2016; now is as good a time as any. The words are mine. The tune is my adaptation of "The Bold Solder" tune sung by Lena Bourne Fish in the Anne and Frank Warner Collection.

From my Soundcloud entry:

Rachel Wall was hanged at Boston, on October

Excellent job on capturing broadside balladry, and fine match of words and tune.

Wow, everything about this is wonderful! Your song and your singing of it, and the original story, and the ironic ending! Too much! Just: excellent.
