Anybody have some info about the background of this song? Is it traditional or composed?
    I've always been under the impression that it was written by Jean Ritchie, and the version on the digitrad looks like hers in every way. It's not listed with credit for Jean Ritchie, however, but it also doesn't say "Traditional"
    The other day I heard a nice Youtube version by Alyson Kraus on Youtube that was much slower (listed simply as "Jubilee"). It used the same refrain as Ritchie's "Swing and turn, Jubilee    Live and learn, Jubilee. The verses were different, however.
    Are they both writing new verses to an earlier traditional refrain?   What's up?
