RE: Top 20 Filksongs

replyOne technical nitpick while I consider my own tweaks to the list:

I suspect that the credit for "Key of R" was meant to read "Tom Payne" rather than "Tom Smith" -- but in fact, I don't think either attribution is replycorrect. This got hashed out on rec.music.filk some while back, and if memory serves the song was traced to a Washington DC-area nonfilk bar-circuit musician. A Google search, or a search in the Google-that-was-Deja newsgroup engine, might turn up the correct author.
