"Youtube" has its' uses : https://youtu.be/K0TkuCjucL0 I seem to remember the Corries singing this accompanying themselves percussively by scraping the rhythm out on 2 matchboxes. As for the "Little Beggarman", I remember the late Michael Marra singing a beautiful version of it in Blairgowrie Folk Club, around 1970. I have no idea where he got that particular version, and have never heard anyone else sing it anywhere since.
