 A.L. Lloyd: Street Songs of England (Washington WLP 737)

Edited by Kenneth S. Goldstein.
Cover picture by Gene Gogerty.

Note: Warren Fahey lists in his list of Larrikin label LPs and singles the “extremely rare” A.L. Lloyd album Street Songs of Old England (Manhattan LRM124). I presume that it is an Australian release of this album.

Musicians

A.L. Lloyd: vocals;
Alf Edwards: concertina
