5.0 out of 5 stars Believe an ex miner when he tells you, 15 Nov 2008
This review is from: The Big Hewer (Audio CD)
For an in-depth examination of what miners and their communities have had to endure, this CD goes most of the way on exploring the topic.

MacColl's sympathetic lyrics make for an ideal combination of song and narrative.
