Songs about Suffolk 11:44 - Jan 7 with 1172 viewsKing_of_Portman_Rd

My Spotify liked songs threw an old song into my ears on a peaceful dog walk yesterday that got me thinking.. how many songs are about our fair county or the towns, villages, locations within it?

It’s probably been done on here before and there are some obvious ones (Ed Sheehan) but I thought I’d start us off with this, which I’d not heard for a while until Spotify thought I needed to hear it again

This one by Jim Moray is almost certainly about either a different Suffolk or a different place entirely, as it talks about a mountain within 50 miles of Suffolk.

This, by Nick Cave on the other hand, is 100% Bury St Edmunds.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

Nice one, never heard that. Maybe Simple Song was inspired by a few off here.

About Polstead and mentions Ipswich Town in the first verse, haven't listened to this for a year or two and forgotten the magnificent swagger the Albion Band had:
