      If he hasn't got it yet then get him a copy of Billy Braggs book on skiffle, best book I have read in ages.

    I'm reading the Lomax biography by John Szwed. it says that McColl wrote it for the theme of a BBC documentary about Manchester.

      I read it was for a London West End play. A fill in song while scenes were changed.
