Sorry people, I wasn't meant to exclude anyone, I was just commenting on what I see as a problem in England today. A lot of English people seem to have lost their identity to this Americanised global mainstream way of life. Local dialect, music, and pass times are almost forgotten. I suppse the same could be said for many countries but for me it is upsetting, because there's more to us than this, and so much that our kids are going to miss out on.

Jon Mayhew

Smashing song be it Scottish, Irish, English or Welsh... on the other hand, isn't the tune Breton? ;o)

Hans Fried

Another brilliant performance of one of my favourites of the great ballads. Their are many beautiful versions of this wonderful ballad from Britain and America.

@mickigoe thumbs up :-)

@greenjack1959l No offence taken , mate - when I listen to both English and Irish trad , I find it hard to imagine much cultural difference at all.

greenjack1959l

@mickigoe no exclusion intended, was mean,t to respect your seperate identity, forgive me. isn,t she just though?

mickigoe

@greenjack1959l And don't exclude us Irish - 4 nations 2 islands - the island of the Mighty and the island of the Notsobad. Isn't Eliza something else , though.

greenjack1959l

@megiziii 3 nations 1 island = great music, long live the island of the Mighty

Good performance, but check out Lyncroft's version from the 1980s.

Check out Black Rat's version on the album 'Rich Pickings' available on I Tunes.

@fassaalbrecht Brilliant mate, respect for educating the kids man!

fassaalbrecht

@lordblighty I'm with you on using trad. songs in schools. They''re as much a history lesson as any textbook and an important part of our culture. I did a folk music program at a school (I play viola) and the kids absolutely loved it, right from the younger ones to the oldest.

Elizabeth Hextall

Check out Back Rat's version of Ushers Well also for a newer slant on this story x

Thanks. Love Martin and have seen both Martin and Steeleye in concert.

Very good point - and I'd probably have never listened to any of these songs if it hadn't been for Steeleye, who then introduced me to Martin's mastery via "Please To See The King", so it all comes around :)

SlightlySusan

I am also a lifelong Steeleye fan. Steeleye made certain that another generation . . . or two or three . . . know these wonderful songs. It may have been Pierre ben Susan in a radio interview who said that he wished for years that his music was as good as traditional music. Then he realized that what came down to us were masterpieces, and he felt better about himself. Martin's is legendary music will be preserved through technology. Steeleye + Martin have saved a heritage.
