I didn't know Townes Van Zandt recored this song. It's originally about the town of Salford in the North west of England in the UK. Good cover version.

i love you tube!such a huge treasure of about 100 years of all the musical pearls and highlights.but i hate it for being a platform for all those disrespectful,schafseckels (it`s swissgerman,hard to translate) like "sherp2u1"your comment smells like shit.

sherp2u1

the worst rendition of this classic, I've ever heard! McColl is flipping like a fish in his grave! dude sounds like absolute shit!

My whole life I thought this was a Pogue's song. I'm 42 now and I've been hearing it at least 20 years. My mind is thoroughly blown, by both artists.

In the Pogue's version the word "dead" sounds a bit like "dutch" to my American ear. From that, and from the key changes between the instrumental and singing parts, I suspect Townes was familiar with their version. And yes, I could be "dutch" wrong. :)

I noticed that nobody has mentioned Roger Whittaker's brilliant version of Ewan's masterpiece.
