GUEST,Melodeon Lyr Req: The Butcher boy (10) RE: Lyr Req: The Butcher boy 13 Jan 02

Thanks George and Malcolm

After 18 months I was astonished that someone resurrected the thread.

While looking for something else, about a year ago, tucked into a totally different album sleeve I found what I was looking for. The booklet from 'Fair Game and Foul' vol 7 of Folk Songs of Britain Caedmon Records.

Sung by Jean Robertson, although not all of it is on the record the booklet has the full version so I was able to get the bits I had forgotten. As Malcolm says it's sustantially the same as Enoch Kent's version exept that it doesn't have his 4th verse,which doen't ring true to me anyway.

Thanks

Melodeon
