Who is George Guthrie?
George Guthrie moved away from the town eastwards towards the coast, and worked as a blacksmith in Wallsend and Sunderland.
He came to the attention of Joe Wilson, the great Music Hall performer who said that many of Guthrie’s songs were considerably meritable, and much to be admired.
One of his songs “Heh ye seen wor Cuddy” sung to the tune of “The King of the Cannibal Islands” appears on page 13 of J. W. Swanston’s The Tyneside Songster and page 518 of Thomas Allan’s illustrated Edition of Tyneside Songs and Readings
