I'm amazed that there is only one mention on this thread of what is possibly the first Child ballad to top the charts, though the flipside, My Old Man's a Dustman, has become more famous. I learned the Golden Vanity from the first record I ever bought when 6/2 was more than a fortnight's pocket money. When I do it, I introduce it as the first million selling trad folk song, probably not true, but it sounds good.
Cheers Donny
