Eric
Bogle [1944- ]:
The Green
Fields of France
[1:53]
Eric Bogle composed the song of
which the words of the recitation above are the lyrics (one
version). Bogle is a Scotsman who relocated to
Australia. His life and music recordings may be found at: www.windbourne.com/ebogle/eric.html. I
strongly recommend the music of this very talented
singer-songwriter.
