Subject: Scarborough Fair
Dear Sirs, I know that SCARBOROUGH FAIR is a very old English folksong dates back to late medieval times.However, the earliest recordings now can be found are the versions of Simon & Garfunkel and Martin Carthy.Do you know whether any earlier versions of this classic available (incl. 78's) in grammophone history?If so Could you give me some ideas how can I buy them?

I'll be glad to receive your feedback.

Yours faithfully,
