Wolfgang obviously has a recorded version: is it anyone we would know?

WR, probably not, for it is not easy to get. Christy Moore's first ever LP, 'Paddy on the road', has this song on it. Christy obviously doesn't like what he did then for this LP never has been made into a CD or reprinted ('printed' may be the wrong word for an LP). I can understand him, for if I would only know that recording I'd say "Young man, give up singing you're not really good at that" and how wrong would I have been with such an assessment.

I may have a chance to listen to him later this year in Germany. He's the one (of the living singers) I'd love to hear most (with the possible exception of Dick Gaughan).
