EACH SONG ALSO HAS A WRITE UP - LIKE -

JOHN HENERY WAS SAID TO BE A REAL LIFE HERO, A MIGHTY RAILROAD WORKER WHO BY 1870 WAS POUNDING STEEL SPIKES INTO RAILROAD TIES FASTER THAN ANYONE ALIVE. THEN, TO PROTEST NEW MACHINES THAT WERE REPLACING HUMAN LABOR, HE SET HIMSELF UP IN A RACE AGAINST A STEAM DRILL. JOHN HENERY WON, BUT BURST A BLOOD VESSEL AND DIED THAT NIGHT, AT AGE 34. THE MACHINE AGE HAD ARRIVED. YET THE "'STEEL DRIVING MAN" LIVED ON IN DOZENS OF SONGS AND LEGENDS....

THE RIDDLE SONG / I GAVE MY LOVE A CHERRY -

THIS LOVE SONG MADE UP OF RIDDLES CAN BE TRACED BACK ALMOST 600 YEARS TO RURAL BRITIAN AND AN OLD BALLAD CALLED "CAPTAIN WALKERS COURTSHIP". BY THE MID 1700'S KENTUCKY MOUNTAINEERS FOLLOWING DANIEL BOONE WESTWARD HAD MADE IT THIER OWN.........
