A couple of metallers I was hoping to talk into recording a full-on electric version with me rather dissed it as being "too hey nonny-nonny": I suppose we all have different perspectives.

Shame; thanks for the expansions though. I know Carthy set it to that particular tune, but I like what you've done with it and could see it going in any number of ways, but as it stands the trance / Velvets thing is very evident & welcome. I've just bought a Kaossilator - a hand-held looping synth no bigger than a slice of toast - and am presently experimenting with using it with the old songs; I could see it fitting in with what you do too actually - trance grooves & all!
