GUEST,pavane mentioned "Bob Dylan's dream and Lord Franklin (words & tune)"

In the album (Freewheelin' I believe)liner notes Dylan mentions that he got the tune from an old folk song learned from a British singer whose name he believed was Martin Carthy.
Most of us Martin Carthy fans have heard the song Lord Franklin.
