 This song is special to me. I came across this monument to 204 miners near where used to live. After I put up the story on a website it attracted a lot of interest (click here) As you will see on that page this resulted in a man sending me a book which together with my visits to the monument inspired this song… Silent Stone. It is a live rendition by the Steve Thompson Band at the Customs House, South Shields. I think this could make a great modern folk song for Oxana perhaps with a monologue in Russian in the middle. |
