Subject: RE: Origins: Nipperkin and a brown bowl (Barley Mow)
This is a bit of synchronicity. When I was at college, there was a guy from Derbyshire sang this in the folk club to much admiration. He also sang a version of Yeats "Jester and Princess" and I started trying to track him down last week to find what tune he used. After years of not finding him on the net, he turned up at last, but then also turned out to no longer be where the references showed him. I don't have quite enough chutzpah to go any further.
