No More Fish, No Fishermen is a song, the lyrics for which were composed by Canadian folklorist Shelley Posen, about the demise of the Newfoundland fishery. Although it was written in 1996, it is often assumed to be a traditional song.〔 〕 The tune is based upon "Coal Not Dole" by Kay Sutcliffe and Paul Abrahams, who wrote the lyrics and melody respectively, about the death of the coal industry in northern England. "Coal Not Dole" was made popular by Coope Boyes and Simpson on their ''Funny Old World'' album, and is in turn based on the Victorian Christmas carol, "See, Amid The Winter's Snow". It is set to the hymn tune ''Humility'' by John Goss, written in 1871. Posen also recorded it on his CD ''The Old Songs Home'', with a jangle pop musical arrangement reminiscent of The Byrds. ==Covers== * Finest Kind on ''Heart's Delight'' * Shelley Posen on ''The Old Songs Home'' * Adam Miller ''The Orphan Train and Other Reminiscences'' * Johnny Collins ''Now & Then'' * Bill Garrett & Sue Lothrop ''Red Shoes'' 2003 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「No More Fish, No Fishermen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
