Thread Name: John Barleycorn and Farmers Boy?
Subject: John Barleycorn and Farmers Boy?
Hi,

I'm an American student trying to track down the roots of folk songs that have crossed over between the US and the UK: for instance, Farmers' Boy and John Barleycorn. Is anyone aware of places where these songs are still sung in the UK, say as part of traditional events? Thanks in advance!
