Recorded by Rosselson in 1990? IIRC I had a record with it on in 1973, might have been on "Songs for Sceptical Circles" from the 60s. I remember a young chap (name, someone?) in the Welcome Inn in Rusholme in about 1973-5 singing a parody, "Little Jimmy Dirt, loved to wear a skirt..." He also sang "the end of my old cigar", and played excellent fiddle, if that helps anyone to place him.
