The article on John Jacob Niles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Jacob_Niles) claims that he wrote this song. Either that page or this should be corrected. (I don't know which.) Alexbook (talk) 16:48, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He didn't, he's a liar. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.44.50.248 (talk) 04:01, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" reference

"where black is the colour and none is the number" is a line in "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" " by Bob Dylan, a song infulence by the folk song "Lord Randall". Not an observation worth putting in the article, I don't think, but just thought I'd put that out there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.184.48.205 (talk) 01:24, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 161.184.48.205, I think that you are 100% right because Bob Dylan knew those Lomax songs so well that he probably could have inserted "black is the color" as a subconscious quote into "Hard Rain." The poets like him scrape up everything from everywhere and then it shows up somehow in their verses, God bless them. G41rn8 (talk) 05:24, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

better link to sharps folk songs (note 3)

The reference in note 3 could be improved by linking directly to the page in the book, which can be viewed at the link below. I don't know how to do it so I'm leaving a note here. Thanks to anyone who's keeping up this page. https://digital.ncdcr.gov/digital/collection/p249901coll37/id/35803 112.171.89.88 (talk) 10:35, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contribution. I added your link as a reference and kept the original. As title and year are different, the references could well refer to different publications. Hinnerk R (talk) 11:32, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
