Subject: RE: Origins: Lord Lovel (Child #75)
I will also see if I can get it from the library. In the meantime, I found a link to Matt Schwarz's version of Lord Lovel, the one that is accompanied by the tune "Lord Lovel," usually played on the dulcimer (except Matt plays the harp on this version).

Matt Schwarz 

I actually emailed Matt and suggested he use Child 75E instead of H and after reviewing the text, he decided that he did in fact prefer 75E to H and also the name Ancebel to Nancybell. Eventhough he recorded the ballad using text H as his set of lyrics, he did so mainly because H is the "classic" or standard version. He wasn't really aware of other versions.
