The second or third song in this film is almost the same tune as Bob Dylan's song "Masters Of War". I think it may be the song "Come All You Coal Miners". Is this a traditional tune that both Dylan and this song borrowed from or did Dylan simply steal this tune for his song.
shareBoth songs draw from the traditional tune "Nottamun Town," https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsUKApb2gr8.
shareThanks for that link. Dylan is such a great lyricist that I can forgive him for using a traditional tune on one of his most powerful songs. If you get a chance youtube Eddie Vedder doing Masters Of War at Bob Dylan's tribute concert.
