There is a version of this song on "McGinn of the Calton" the tribute to Matt McGinn that used to be performed by the Glasgow group Stramash.
Here's a link to the shortened live TV version of the show where Robbie Coltrane does the links and Anne Neilson sings May Day at about 44 mins in...

Greentrax brought out a recording of Stramash's show where Adam McNaaugtan did the links (better than Coltrane IMO) but nothing could beat the live performance by Stramash if you were lucky enough to see it.
Fine singing by Adam McNaughtan, Anne Neilson, Bob Blair, Kevin Mitchell,and the late John Eaglesham.
