Weekend Playlist: Mining

Weekend Playlist: Mining

Here's the weekend playlist created by Ian with help from guest curator Adrian looking at X/twitter selections (16/05/2025) with Songs that reference or associated with mining.
This was inspired by the anniversairy on Tuesday (13/05/1949), Paul Robeson visited and sung for the miners at Woolmet Colliery near Edinburgh.
