Talk:Trouble Will Soon Be Over

Clarifications

Do we have any citation as to this song being "traditional", as opposed to having been written by BWJ?

Also, Dorothy Love Coates recorded a different song called "Trouble In The Land Will Soon Be Over", but I can't find a recording by her of this song. Has anyone else found one? RobHutten (talk) 11:43, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

• @RobHutten: Dorothy Love Coates, live at Newport; on YouTube. Discogs link. 1995.

BWJ's recording sounds like a trad song to me, but I can't do any better than that gut feeling. Narky Blert (talk) 18:10, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

"Trouble Will Soon Be Over" doesn't seem to be in any of the usual musicological databases. Compare "All My Trials" as another old-sounding song of obscure origin. Shall we work together on better wording for the opening sentence? Narky Blert (talk) 18:34, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
