The best version of 'Cornish Lads' was sung and recorded by Jinks Stack a fantastic 3 part harmony group from Cornwall. They were the actual carriers of the song which made national news during the South Crofty closing procedure - double page in the Guardian, local and national BBC etc etc. It was these lads who in my view made the song what it has become. They also sing other good Cornish Songs and Graham O'Callaghan continues to sing them at festivals and clubs around the country. I hear that they are to reform with their first gigs in the autumn. Graham's e-mail is graham.ocallaghan@lineone.net if you want more help.
