GUEST,Courtney Allen Powers | Origins: John Barleycorn Must Die (27) | RE: Origins: John Barleycorn Must Die | 16 Apr 06 |
I've been tracing John Barleycorn back, but every version I've seen prior to Burns is to the tune of "Lull me beyond thee" or to the tune of "Stingo". Has anyone seen the modern tune back prior to Burns? Or did he just creatively interpolate and make something new in this family of songs? |
