Thank you redsquier. I'm pleased that you liked it; and that you commented. It is nice to get feedback.

This is a great version. I love the concertina.

@11gokey I am pleased that you enjoyed it. Thank you for taking the time to comment. I still love this song. Years of repetition in pub sessions have only made it more pleasurable for me to sing it.

You are correct. This is a great folk song. And, you do it much justice. I could listen for hours!

What a great rendition. I had only ever heard that of Louis Killen. Both of you do the song justice. Many thanks. I would like to hear this live.

@MrSlocad1 Thank you. I feel honoured to be compared at all with Louis. I'd be glad to play it live to you but it would mean you making the journey to Oxford. From Turkey that would be quite a journey though!

Thank you so much Guy. For me, 'Franklin' is simply the most perfect folk song I know. There is always a 'hush' when I sing this - even in a noisy pub!
