Thanks, Mick, I wasn't that clear in my response, but it was because DT uses Angus that I used it as well, any way, got cut off earlier from the list, there is also one most recently by Karen Casey - on Songlines (?) I think, or an earlier cd release, she does it in 3/4 time, very lovely as a waltz

there are a couple of recitations with music by Tommy Makem on Best of CD? (I think) and earlier 1960? by Serrafyn Mork, the last great troubador! no recording of Yeats himself reciting it, obviously, or we could hear the way he chanted, though I think he stopped doing it to psaltery fairly early on, certainly not after WWI

versions to different airs are by Donovan, as mentioned earlier & by Ceoltoiri, can't remeber the cd title

I will post someday soon the conmplete list with all correct references, sources, lp or cd availability etc as soon as I can get to my notes and have time to enter thanks for all the interest If anyone knows of any others I don't list (when my complete list is up) I would certainly like to hear of them

this may be thread creep or some other thing you have a name for, but since i had in fact registered, why did my posting come up as a guest? perhaps other GUESTS have also registered, but as I, don't know how to LOG ON as your registered name? also, and this is thread creep why complain so much about guests when so many of you don't use your own name either, but a nom de cyberspace?

sorry to digress, and thanks again Bill Kennedy
