Red River Dialect

Red River Dialect

I was just pleutering through some of the backwaters of the web (as you do) and via Ethan Miller's Silver Currant blog, stumbled across this little gem from the south coast of Cornwall - Red River Dialect. There was only the one song available and it's a haunting and haunted song - part Cornish-morning invocation, part psych-folk murder ballad. It rumbles and broods towards the end and makes as if to rear up and spit but fades away instead, the emotion dissipating. I'm intrigued.

You can download the song from the Red River Dialect blog (a rapidshare file) or grab the download below:

The chaser has just pointed out to me that I may have just made a word up - pleutered. I've checked, and the only other reference I can find to the word (and were I nabbed it from) is in Kathleen Jamie's beautiful book Findings. I took it to mean walking about in a watery place which kind of fitted the piece above. I'll let it stand, it's a great sounding word if nothing else...
