Hey, That's My Kind Of Music ! (8)



June Tabor Aqaba

I shall celebrate my 800th post with one of my favourite songs sung by one of my favourite singers - Aqaba (written by Bill Caddick) from June Tabor's eponymous album. In case you don't know what's going on in this song, it's about TE Lawrence (or 'Lawrence of Arabia' - remember the David Lean film?) who wrote Seven Pillars Of Wisdom and died in a motorcycle accident. I've written another post about June Tabor here.
