The Normon Luboff Choir performed the album "Folk Songs of the British Isles". Columbia released the album in 1960. The song about which you asked is a watchman's call. "Past 12 o'clock, on a fine frosty morning. Past 12 o'clock, good morning, masters all. Clear is the air, the north wind's a blowing. Soon the city will awake; the cockrel is crowing." The album appears no longer available.
