Hi Bob

I'm sure your version from the book should be some sort of definitive version!

I just had another listen to the linked track (Martyn Joseph singing) and it's more or less as I had it, with a couple of notes wrong in the ante-penultimate bar.

X: 1
T:Judas And Mary
M:3/4
L:1/4
Q:1/4=138
A:Sydney Carter
C:Sydney Carter
K:EAeo

E/F/|G G G|A G A|B3|z2
w:With your oint-ment so rich and so rare

So presumably he changed it a bit too.

By the looks of it Liz will have two photocopies as well as your transcription to work from - should be enough! (I only did it from the recording to give her some lead time on McGofH's letter).

Best wishes
Mick
