List of Songs
As listed below, the Novelaires under their various names performed a wide range of songs. Most of these were taken from practice tapes made in living rooms. You will pick up children laughing in the background for some. Some include rehearsals of the monolog introductions to the song. A few, like Drums of My Heart and Bowie Knife were professionally done on 45rpm records.
The lower list includes songs that they performed at one time or another that aren't ready to post. I have recordings of a few of them that I'll try to get onto the other list when I can. Some need a lot of work.
