To travelling communities throughout Europe, to whom traditional music owes a great debt for their work in the production, proliferation, and conservation of so much music. And specifically Mary Delaney, from whom we heard In Charlestown there Dwelled a Lass, and who lived in London for much of her life.
To the writer and educator Roy Brummell, formerly of the University of Guyana who first relayed the tune of Ova Canje Water to Mataio. Also to the great Guyanese folklorist and poet, Wordsworth McAndrew, who collected Ova Canje Water and many other Guyanese folk songs. In so doing he helped to keep alive a folksong tradition and repair Guyana’s cultural self which had been so brutalised by British colonialism.
To Mike O’Malley for his knowledge, time and skill in recording our full band version of ‘The Bold Fisherman’ which opens this release. Also to the great Copper family who have so well looked after and proliferated that song, and which is now inextricably linked to them.
