REVIEWS – Keystone Folklore Quarterly
Riverside Records, RIP 12-606, Australian  Bush Songs, sung by A.L. Lloyd. 12" LP, Riverside Records, RLP 12-603.
A.L. Lloyd's Australian Bush Songs stands as the high point of Riverside's initial ventures into the field of folk songs. A.L. Lloyd is as genuine a folksinger as one could hope to find in this day of radio, concert hall, and night club performers, ranking with his co-worker in England, Ewen MacColl, and our own Woody Guthrie. His experiences aboard Antarctic whaling ships during the 1930’s caused his to be sought out for the part of the shantyman in the recent film version of Moby Dick. Mr. Lloyd learned the songs in this album—first hand as a young sheep-herder and shearing shed worker in New South Wales in the early shearing-shed worker in New South Wales in the early 1930s Half the songs are concerned with the life_and experiences of the sheep hands the remainder give us glimpses of outlaws, farmers, miners, and cattle drovers. The singing is robust and unpretentious, presenting a vigorous song-picture of a young frontier land carving out its own individuality through toughness, hard work, and a spirit of independence. It is a picture that in many respects parallels that of the development of our own American West. The outlaws bear much resemblance to our own western badman-heroes, tempered some what with the characteristics of the English highwayman-hero. The sheep hands, at work and at plays have much in. common with the American cowboy. It is hoped that this is not a one shot effort and that Riverside Records and Mr. Lloyd eventually add more to the very small number folksongs from the land down under that is commercially available at present.
