Harvest Home

BBC Radio 2
on BBC Radio 2

A celebration in words and music of the traditions of harvest time, compiled by Georgina Boyes. Harvest time has inspired many great folk songs - from traditional John Barleycorn to the more recent All of a Row and Rolling Home. Many people - from ordinary farm workers to rural vicars and Ralph Vaughan Williams - have written about the good and the bad times of bringing in the harvest. Featuring
Martin Carthy , Eliza Carthy , Barry Coope , Jim Boyes , Lester Simpson , Fi Frazer and Georgina Boyes. Producer David Corser
