On two occasions I've heard Waterson:Carthy sing this live, and have versions of this CopperSong by lots of other people; but according to the Trackfinder from the Carthy Chronicles Martin has never recorded this. Does anyone else know better?

Is this the carol I know as "Shepherds Arise"?

Yep! After I posted the message, I thought I should have used both names (Shepherds Arise is the name in the Copper book), but decided not to put an apologetic message straight away ....

Coope Boyes and Simpson have recorded it (wonderfully) on their CD A Garland of Carols (No Masters NMCD13).

Home service did it on their recording of "The Mysteries" done at the National Theatre.

Good Song. Don't know of a Carthy recording though.
