  • Strikebound Music Credits
    Music Declan Affley Additional Music Peter Sullivan Engineered by Roger Savage Industrial Percussion and strange noises Greg Perano Additional Synth. noises Tlm Smoke As might be expected of a director that at the time shot music videos for a living, there's an unusual amount of music in Strikebound, much of it of a traditional folk music kind. Songs included the traditional The Blackleg Miner, sung by Declan Affley, which has its own wiki here, and can be found on YouTube in a variety of performances. There's also the whimsical The Lambton Worm, also sung by Affley, which has a wiki here. And at the end of the film, there's another traditional song sung by Affley, The Miner, lyrics at Folkstream here. The film also celebrates brass band music, both community and Salvation Army: • The Wonthaggi brass band is on hand to unit street marchers to the tune Victoria; • The Dead march from Saul (Handel) is played to accompany the funeral cortege as it makes its way to the cemetery; • The Salvation Army rallies support outside the Toora pub with I Believe we Shall Win; • The community joins in with union leader Idris Williams (Hugh Keays-Byrne) in the traditional song Cockles and Mussels; • The humorous juxtaposition of The Salvation Army singing the Welsh anthem Rhyfelgyrch Gwyr Harlech (Men of Harlech) is up against Welsh union leader Idris Williams speaking next door for the Communist Party. This gives way to another musical feud, with the Sallies singing Onward Christian Soldiers, while the miners next door take up the song The People's Flag is Deepest Red (The Red Flag has a wiki here); • Other traditional music includes a tin whistle perking up the miners' spirits during a football playing break, and an aeolian pipe as Agnes looks in the mirror and wonders whether to wear her hair down.

  • Weevils in the Flower - 15 September 2012
    Weevils in the Flower - 15 September 2012 A short history of a song : Mark Gregory Australian Tradition November 1965 A 1970s recording of Declan Affley singing 'Weevils in the Flour' at a Sydney concert is one of many songs chosen for the Living Democracy exhibition which opened in July 2009 in the Museum of Australian Democracy, Old Parliament House. The song has an interesting history bound up with the folk song movement, Australian literature and Australian industrial history since the 1930s depression. A history so interesting that the song has accreted a fair amount of folklore itself. Sometimes it is published as an anonymous song written in Newcastle in the 1930s. It was one many new Australian songs that a small gathering of Sydney folkies in Barbara Lysiak's home sang to Pete Seeger during his visit in 1963. The first recording of it on a 1965 LP of Australian contemporary songs came under threat of legal action from Australia's most powerful mining and steel making company BHP, the 'Big Australian'. In the next 20 years its influence spread. It become a workers' anthem and had its title borrowed for a pioneering oral history of the depression. The phrase 'weevils in the flour' entered the Australian vernacular. 'Weevils in the Flour' began its journey to a song as a poem written by Dorothy Hewett with the title 'Where I Grew To Be a Man'. It was published in 1963 in 'What About The People!' Hewett's joint collection of 75 poems with her husband, Merv Lilley. The collection was published by the National Council of the Realist Writers Groups.

  • 'There's a Sound of Many Voices in the Camp and on the Track' –
    ‘There’s a Sound of Many Voices in the Camp and on the Track’ A Descriptive Analysis of Folk Music Collecting in New Zealand, 1955-1975 Michael Brown A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in Music at Victoria University, Wellington New Zealand April 2006 i Abstract During the period from 1955 to 1975 a group of individuals began the task of collecting folk music in New Zealand. This collecting was different from the earlier collecting of Maori music – it focussed mainly on English-language material felt to be the folk heritage of New Zealanders of European descent. The collectors gathered a valuable body of songs, verse and music, which was used in a variety of ways. Many individuals promoted the material to a wider public by performing music, recording albums and publishing song anthologies. Other collectors commenced the scholarly study of folk traditions in New Zealand. This thesis is a descriptive analysis of the work of seven individuals involved in the overall effort: Angela Annabell, Rona Bailey, Les Cleveland, Neil Colquhoun, Frank Fyfe, Phil Garland and Herbert Roth. It seeks to understand the enterprise from their point of view: how they conceived of ‘folk music’; their collecting methods; and the ways in which they promoted or studied what they had collected. To help situate and compare the achievement of each individual, their work is placed within the wider contexts of overseas folkloristic research, related study in New Zealand and the folk revival movement. The collecting in New Zealand was relatively short-lived but brought together a recognised canon of folk music.
