Wow. The pieces of this song really got around. Per somewhere on the Web (I can go hunt if anyone's interested), Bob Dylan claimed authorship of Rocks and Gravel because he changed it so and made it "current" and political rather than the "original" prison song.

Joe, I suspect the Ian and Sylvia version is the same (or nearly so) to the Halifax Three one. Canadian groups regularly "borrowing" identical arrangements from one another, I'm told. Am going to a music potluck Friday with a bunch of 60s folkies. I may get more answers there.
