Sandy, thanks for the lead & info on Jack In The Green. It was written & copyrighted by Martin Graebe in 1973^^. I'd been looking for backround on this song for years & have only been told that it's Trad. Martin Graebe keeps a web site dedicated to Sabine-Gould's collection as well as a bit on himself. There's also a web site on Jack in the Green as a tradition (nothing about the song). If I ever do something with the above song I'll take all measures to now give Martin his due, Thanks again Sandy.
Thanks to the rest who commented & enjoyed the song. Barry
