Product description
First released in 1961, these songs, sung by Bert Lloyd, are drinking songs in the best sense of the phrase; songs from the great British pub tradition. At the "Eel's Foot" pub on the gusty East coast of England, on a Saturday night, the farm-workers bring their songs and match them against the songs of the sailors and cattle-dealers and travelling tinsmiths. These are drinking songs, but not in the strict sense, not songs merely in praise of liquor, but songs that tell a bit of a story: "Songs as sly as a tinker's wink, as rough as a ploughman's hand, songs as sung and social as the Eel's Foot itself, with the wind and the rain outside and the firelight and the music within." - from the sleeve notes by A.L.Lloyd.

I wrote to Bigamart's customer support and they accompanied the process of reshipping the item until it finally arrived. I felt a genuine effort to solve the problem till it was finally solved.
The package was here in Australia from England in a few days โ so quick! Something was missing and they refunded it straight away. Pretty happy with these guys.
