Hello there,

My question is : how to sing Allison Gross (Child Ballad 35) ?
The most famous version is the one by Steeleye Span, there are more versions, even in other languages but they all sound the same.
That's not bad but I want to sing it myself and like to do it 'old style '.

I do not ask for the lyrics, there has been a discussion here before, nor do I ask for the Steeleye Span chords because I already have them.

I just want to know how to sing it properly.
I've been in touch with Judy Cook who does a very nice a capella (listen to it on Spotify) version but even she does not have sheet music; she just listened to the Steeleye Span version. She did mention a strong resemblance with the song "Down in Yon Forest".

Thanks
Moos
