Hilary Spencer does a grat job of singing this one. Brings tears to my eyes. Charley Noble |

Oh well, at least I've been consistent between threads on who I thought I'd heard sing it, even if I got the writing attribution wrong. Now I'm wondering which Robert Service concoction Robin was singing. Kitty |

Actually I've also heard Dave Kidman sing it, I think it was at Barnsley, got a great reception. He had an extra verse that fitted the shanty element too. Haven't seen him around much lately though - hope he's not been forced under ground. |
