COMPOSER: George Butterworth
TITLE: Complete Butterworth Songbook
TRACKS: Loveliest of trees. When I was one-and-twenty. Look not in my eyes. Think no more lad. The lads in their hundreds. Is my team ploughing?. Haste on my joys!. Yonder stands a lovely creature. A blacksmith courted me. A lawyer he went out one day. Come my own one. A brisk young sailor courted me. Tarry trowsers. I will make you brooches. In the year that's come and gone. Life in her creaking shoes goes. Fill a glass with golden wine. On the way to Kew. I fear thy kisses. Sowing the seeds of love. The cuckoo. Seventeen come Sunday. Roving in the dew. The true lover's farewell. Requiescat. Bredon Hill. Oh fair enough are sky and plain. When the lad for longing sighs. On the idle hill of summer. With rue my heart is laden. Bonus - Film: George Butterworth dancing.
ARTISTS: Mark Stone   Stephen Barlow
