about

A live recording of the Manx poet, Paul Lebiedzinski, performing in 1982.
Lebiedzinski has written of this poem:
"'Six Foot Under' is a controversial poem written around (the time of) the great sales of farms in the 1970s when before there was a proper Draft Development Plan a lot of agricultural land was being snapped up and eventually used for housing, whereas the original plan would be for a farm cottage... But, of course, it only brought prosperity for a meagre few."

This recording was originally released on 'Six Foot Under', a cassette tape produced in 1998 by Culture Vannin (then with the name, Manx Heritage Foundation).
Culture Vannin is a charity which works to promote, support and celebrate Manx Culture.
