Thanks for the UTube recording, Vaughan, and the references, Malcolm & Steve.
I do sometimes use an older version of a tune, eg the Baring Gould & Sharp version of "Saucy Sailor" from their book "English Folk Songs for Schools", rather than the more usual Steeleye Span version. However, for this song, I think I'll used the (currently) standard tune.
See you in the Newt, Terry, if my camper has a successful heart transplant by then!
