Joseph Spense's bahama version of "I bid you goodnight" is actually rousing..and has led to innumerable versions since as mentioned above.But it is,as you say, Spense's/Grateful dead etc's take on the Sankey hymn(words Sarah Doudney or Poudney, my memory's failing) "The Christian's Goodnight". Slow and mournful, rocking and joyful(depends how you view funerals)...both ways eminently suitable for a choir/sing around/pub session/final number at a concert. But if one member of the group whines, what do you do???
