    Excellent composition and performance, Robert! Love the singing, melody, and finger-picking. It's also an interesting story-song. I wonder how many people Googled Black Bart after hearing this- I know I did.

    This ballad of mine is based on the true story of the English-born Wild West "gentleman outlaw" Charles E. Boles, known as Black Bart. He left notes containing rhyming comic verse at the scenes of his crimes, signed "Black Bart the P08." He never shot anyone and he disappeared from the scene after being released from prison.

    Wow! What a sensational original here Robert! This harkens back, from a songwriting approach, to Marty Robbins, and those classic story telling songs that somehow have become a scarcity these days. Love that you are telling a story here, and my friend, you do it in impeccably fine fashion! Nicely done!

      Thanks for the comment, Jeff! Interesting to hear about your highwayman ancestor! I've been researching my family tree, but haven't found anything really exciting, other than I am vaguely related to Abraham Lincoln. We share the same ancestors, according to the Free Family Site. They contacted me saying that Mr Lincoln and I are 7th cousins 5 times removed, on my father's side! lol! Not much of a relationship really!

    The story of Black Bart is magical and continues to be so: 2 hours back i watched a fresh upload of 'Stories of the Century', which was recommended to me by YT. Just for fun... The story was about a highwayman called Black Bart and i found it fascinating. Now i found your kind comment on my latest video, - for which i thank you very much - and came to check out your channel. Flabbergasted to find a song about the self-same Black Bart her,e and such a good one, too! You got my sub, of course. Warmest greetings from an old Westerngirl in India💖Ma

    Robert, what an interesting character and song Black Bart is- I love the PO8 - if he were a graffiti writer today that could be his tag. If you have researched this (and i’m assuming you have) did you come across any of his poems? would love to hear those. Very interesting song and catchy melody - your talent is amazing

    • @roberthaigh3206
      @roberthaigh3206  4 месяца назад

      Thank you for the comment, Harriet! Glad you like my song! Black Bart left rhyming notes in the empty strongboxes, after he had blasted them open and taken the valuables. One such note read: "I've laboured long and hard for bread, for honour, and for riches. But on my corns too long you've tread, you fine-haired sons of bitches." Hardly Shakespeare or Tennyson, but quite amusing! lol!
