The story is the prototypical example of Aarne–Thompson–Uther tale-type 707, to which it gives its name. The original title is " Li Figghi di lu Cavuliciddaru", for which Crane gives a literal translation of "The Herb-gatherer's Daughters." Joseph Jacobs included a reconstruction of the story in his European Folk and Fairy Tales.
The Dancing Water, the Singing Apple, and the Speaking Bird is a Sicilian fairy tale collected by Giuseppe Pitrè, and translated by Thomas Frederick Crane for his Italian Popular Tales. The Dancing Water, the Singing Apple, and the Speaking BirdĪTU 707 ( The Three Golden Children The Three Golden Sons)Īncilotto, King of Provino Princess Belle-Étoile and Prince Chéri The Tale of Tsar Saltan The Boys with the Golden Stars The Sisters Envious of Their Cadette Batten for Jacobs's Europa's Fairy Book (1916). While it's not as complete as the four-disc box Bird Call!: The Twin City Stomp of the Trashmen, Tube City!: The Best of The Trashmen is still the definitive look at the first part of their career.The foster mother (doe) looks after the wonder-children. The Trashmen's instrumentals also fare well, particularly "Tube City" itself, the flamenco-surf of "Malaguena," and "Bird Dance," a silly, tiki-bird infested bid to follow up the success of "Surfin' Bird." "Bird Dance Beat" follows suit, but songs like "Bad News," "Whoa! Dad," and "Real Live Doll" have as much energy, but a little more originality. Their covers of "Miserlou," "It's So Easy," and "Money (That's What I Want)" reflect the band's roots, and aren't overly respectful of the original versions, while "My Woodie" and "Kuk" are respectable surf-pop songs. That classic single is here in all of its raw, unfettered glory, and while it does tend to overshadow the rest of the Trashmen's output, the collection shows that their other work was also strong. Tube City!: The Best of The Trashmen adds their Garrett singles to their lone 1964 album Surfin' Bird.
