Jolly Herring: 77 Songs Folk and Pop (Classroom Music)
Customer Review: WARNING - NO MUSIC IN THIS EDITION
I bought this book for someone who wanted to learn the songs in it. Unfortunately, it only contains the words. The other review for this book, I now realise, is for the spiral bound edition which contains the music, tabs etc., but this paperback edition doesn’t. I’m sure the words might be useful in a classroom environment, where the teacher has the master copy, but is of no use if you want to teach yourself the songs.

Sadly, the spiral bound version is no longer available. Please be careful not to assume, like I did, that this is a direct re-print. It isn’t!

Customer Review: Join the Herring Inn for a toast to folk and pop!
A fantastic anthology filled with your good old sea shanties, folk songs and pop memories with inspiring (and light-hearted) illustrations by Roy Bentley.
Join Mr. Herring, his wife and their customers, for an old sing-song around the piano: songs from ‘Right Said Fred’ and ‘Hole in the ground’ to ‘Football Crazy’, ‘Whiskey in the Jar’ and ‘The Drunken Sailor’…77 songs old and new.

Compiled, I think, for school children, I believe this to be an excellent and rewarding recourse for your upper-primary and lower secondary schools singing. Especially for your community groups!
A&C Black has certainly something to sing and dance about, isn’t that right Mr. Herring?
