17 Sydney Carter songs which were performed on radio and television in the late 1950's and 1960's.
Personal remarks
I acquired this item for a princely £1.50 at a second-hand book shop in York during a visit to Yorkshire in October, 2001. It is a great treasure containing songs that I had never heard before (not really surprising as I spent very little time in UK in those years). It has just two songs that I know, namely Lord of the Dance and "My Last Cigarette" which I remember Sheila Hancock singing.
This is an excellent songbook containing piano accompaniments, guitar chords, plenty of footnotes and recording details. This is also the source of I Want To Have a Little Bomb.
