 FLUXEUROPA: FOLK - HARRY COX
The rustic English idiom is a long way from Ireland, but with its wavering notes and a meandering rhythm which coils and uncoils without the restraint of percussion, I find in Harry Cox's singing style some justification for a more melismatic approach to English folk singing.
Harry was born in Barton Turf near Great Yarmouth and was a veritable juke box of old songs including broadside ballads like 'The Female Drummer', 'Two Jolly Butchers' and 'Betsy the Serving Maid, Child ballads like 'Bold Archer' and 'Georgie' ('Geordie'), and comical ditties like 'I had an old Hoss' and 'A Happy Family'.
The popular 'Irish' folk song, 'The Black Velvet Band' was also a Harry Cox first, and Steve Roud's notes tell us that the earliest versions of this song were not set in Belfast at all, but in Barking in Essex, England.
