[78-L] Fairies (serious question!)

[David Lennick]

It's definitely there, with a fairly lengthy introduction (An Evening with 
Beatrice Lillie). My copy is in storage so I can't check the composer credits. 
The surprise was in finding another setting I hadn't known about (and wouldn't 
have, if I hadn't been keeping a transfer of this "Cheerio" album for myself).

For those keeping score, there's also a straight version of "The Fairy Pipers" 
by Sigrid Onegin on Brunswick, years before Danny Kaye murdered that one. And 
then Abe Burrows came up with "The Pansy In My Garden", which he subtitled "The 
Baritone's Revolt".
