Sweet Thames Flow Softly
Ewan McColl had a brilliant line in
romantic songs, although I always had
the impression that he valued his political
output more highly. Among his more
personal songs are 'First time ever I saw
your face' which has become an unlikely classic
of the pop world. He had a wonderful knack of
taking the unromantic (Dirty OldTown) and
turning it around. So with thisr song. The names
of the Thames docks and river stopping places act
as a theme for this warm, hopeless love song. - Maddy
