    Post For tune history geeks - The Full English

    The EDFSS have sponsored a project to make the song collectors original notebooks and paperwork available online. It's called The Full English and it's vast.

    I've only dipped in to a bit of Baring-Gould, a soupcon of Sharp, and a little bit of Broadwood but it's been a real eye-opener.

    An interesting by-product for Old Time fans is the original Cecil Sharp notebooks from his travels in the Carolinas and Virginia.

    You may want to pack some virtual sandwiches and a flask if you decide to explore it.
