I love this American countrified-version of such an old Scottish song.

Fine song and a great guitarist. This song was mentioned by Samuel Pepys in 1666, so it's got history.

Just so everyone knows, this is a musical rendition of a poem called Bonny Barbara Allen.

Absolutely right!

I'm not a music historian, however (in response to some earier posts), my guess is that most "real country music" has its beginnings in songs and poems from the countries that many of the early settlers originated from. What puzzles me is why some people feel the need to be rude and confrontational over anothers opinion, however debatable.

Glenn Cantrell

Don Edwards is indeed a remarkable performer & I love listening to him. First heard him on Austin City Limits, & have tried to keep up since. But this is not an original rendition. He pretty much picked this arrangment from the recordings of Bradley Kincaid, late 1920's. Kincaid is the only older version in which "...came from the western states and courted..." is used. Other comparisons can be noted along with the country 4/4 rhythm. J. Cash also referred to Kincaid as an inspiration .

Glenn Cantrell

Samuel Pepys' (1666) diary is close to the first mention of this song in history. He notes that he has just heard a pretty "scotch" ballad.

Windyworm

And just for the sake of correctness it's a northern English tune, not Scottish, not Irish, English!!

Windyworm

You're talking bollocks This is a fairly indifferent version but played professionally. The song actually starts "In Scarlet town where I was born, there was a young girl dwelling". To hear a meaningful version you'll have to come to the UK and get involved with the folk circuit.

Deborah Dyess

a fine singer and great musician. this is music as it meant to be. don ranks along with marty robbins frankie laine tex ritter and all the great western singers.

@Dylanvs75 The song is Scottish in fact, however Samuel Pepy's diary is the first mention of the ballad. In fact in Pepy's diary he calls it "little Scotch song of 'Barbary Allen'". So lets not isult others without having the proper information ourselves.
