Outer Hebrides, 2006 Get out your apples, pipes and fairisle jumpers, it's a trip back to the 1970's folk and a return to Summerisle - the Wicker Man+ awaits...This part is about the older influences to the amazing soundtrack by Paul Giovanni - English, Irish and Scottish songs dating back upto 800 years - to the start of recorded music itself. The Dionysian revelries continue in Part Two. Where'd they find virgins nowadays? (86Mb, 92 mins) Sumer is icumen in (English, c.1260) Paul Giovanni - Willow's Song - Martin said to his man (English, 16th Century) Paul Giovanni - Gently Johnny Unknown - Gently Johnny, My Jingalo (English, earlier but first written down 1907) Meg Baird - Willie O'Winsbury (Scottish, 1775) Paul Giovanni - Procession Shantalla - The Highland Widow's Lament (Scottish, c.1715-1745) Robertson's Rant (Scottish, N. Gow, c.18th C) Paul Giovanni - Searching for Rowan Drowsey Maggie (Irish/Scots? c. 1833 - prob earlier) Emily Smith - Rigs O' Barley (Scottish, R. Burns, 1783) Paul Giovanni - Corn Rigs Paul Giovanni - Maypole Song Seamus Kennedy - Rattlin' Bog (Irish) Barry & Robin Dransfield - I Sowed Some Seeds (English, Ishmael Cornick, 1906/ early 19th C.) Paul Giovanni - The Landlord's Daughter Cyril Tawney - The Hostess's Daughter (English, Ishmael Cornick, 1906/ early 19th C.) Paul Giovanni - The Masks / The Hobby Horse La Reverdie - Miri it is hwile sumer ilasts (English, late 13th C.) Sneaker Pimps - How Do + the 1973 film, not that goddess-awful 2006 remake EDIT: I forgot to say these sources of information and inspiration: The Music of the Wicker Man - brilliant article and this show heavily leant on (ie stole) this information - hope you don't mind! Inside the Wicker Man: How Not to Make a Cult Classic (excellent book - most 'interviews', 'documentaries', 'new information' and 'shocking exposes' are seemingly this book reheated/nicked - it's a good read despite having heard a lot of the info from elsewhere, not the books fault as this seems to be the source for all of that) Wiki Man (lol) Gary Carpenter - Setting the Score - interesting info especially about the Trunk release, although in fairness I have to link their response and without the Trunk release being successful there would be no other versions or anything to kvetch about. Also I think the legalities of performance fees are now very different from 1973. Burnt Offerings - Cult of the Wicker Man Wicker Man Enigma - both on the DVD A Darker Shade of Pagan - Wicker Man posts
