This is a Folk Opera, though it's not mentioned on cover front or inlay rear. The show tells the story of farm workers moved from the country to the front in the first world war and the death of one of their number shot as a concientious objector.
A Day’s Work was first written and performed in 1995. That version of the show was recorded and released as a cassette by Wild Goose Records in 1996 (WGS272MC). It was published in 1997 by Lyngham House (ISBN: 0 9528225).
