Oh, passin' the love o' women

I dreamed that Benjamin Britten had set both the first and second series of the Barrack-Room Ballads (1892 and 1896) for voice and piano; the recordings had just become available on CD. You should have heard Peter Pears on "Follow Me 'Ome."

I'm sorry. Better luck on the next dream?

Thanks!

I think it was simply a case of my subconscious getting revenge on me for too much cartridge collecting and reading of technical material during my childhood.

After making this comment, I actually remembered some slightly more interesting dream material from last night, although it was still nothing much to compare with your Britten + Kipling recordings.
