June Tabor - Hughie Graeme (2003)

[celticchrys]

Superb.

[19davo66]

Any June Tabor fans helpme try and find a song of hers. It was nearly thirty years ago! She sang a beautiful sone and as years have passed I fail to remember most.. there was a woman clled Rosie and he put his shoes under her bed, to show she had cheated, when she hadn't. Rosie Anderson, just come to mind will check. Sorry if obscure, just found a Dick Gaughan sond, from same era I was Folking! I miss it! 

[sakoyereh]

@19davo66 Could it be Young Johnstone?

[19davo66]

@sakoyereh - will have a look. Greatly appreciated! =0)

[ThePoetsLove]

@19davo66 I think it might be Waly Waly from Airs & Graces :)

[19davo66]

@19davo66 I have found the song, though not sung by June, it is called,,, Rosie Anderson. Everyone who has suggested titles have increased my love of this woman! x

[johnmoodymusic]

why haven't you got Spy ship up ???????, that would have been my first choice

[bonzodog47]

Yow! What a great version! I haven't heard this done as well since Tony Capstick took it for a spin.

[Chastalard]

This is beautiful...June's voice is amazing!

[maybole1599]

June is wonderful.

To "Pompepwns": Sandy Denny is a totally different type of singer. And dead.  What an inane comment.

[pvuf431]

@maybole1599 The living do sing better than the dead

[ThePoetsLove]

@pvuf431 Sorry clicked thumbs down by accident!

[Albertan1956]

Thank you for uploading this video so fans of June Tabor can enjoy it! :)

[nilent]

Brava!!!!

Would have loved to have seen more of the Morris dancing! :-)

[Pomepwns]

Sandy Denny has a much more preferable voice to her.

[Trencomtrink]

My ancesters were Border Rievers

But June your voice and passion/truth is beyond belief

[bandruid]

Excellent !

Thank you June!

[Chastalard]

Ok Mon cher...you have a beef with my June...she is an amazing artist. What do you or I care? Listen to the beauty and the passion and let that be the end. Let that be the end. All the best, Brair Niall

[JoeyPencils]

thats kinda personal

[pvuf431]

I use a comb made of sound and will not wear a necktie.

I also refuse to eat custard.

[carollizc]

@pvuf431 Me, too. Custard's gross. Give me a nice tin of Nestle's cream for pouring over my pudding. :)  Still, June Tabor's singing here is some of her best. Had I ten thumbs, they'd all be turned up.

[Chastalard]

what a voice!!! She's one of my Icons! Loved her since my teens...nothing better!!! Thanks, Briar

[geordylass]

Tells the story beautifully, excellent voice

[gaelicscots]

june tabor is an overly aggressive, demented DYKE !!!!

[Chastalard]

She's a brilliant traditional singer, where were you educated? The songs come alive in her hands! Briar

[JoeyPencils]

why would that matter

[bandruid]

Excellent singer!!! Thank You!

[folklore]

shes incredible . . thank you for the video

[plattix]

I agree she is the bet british female folk singer that I ever heard.

[PollyMorphus]

Only June could make a 500 year old song sound like it happened yesterday.

[greenbakelite]

June sings the Child ballads with such a warmth and understanding her voice is like hot butterd toast - Loads of love June XXX

[MaxErnst]

the greatest British female folk singer

[flatus69]

the greatest female folk singer.

[htrosch]

June Tabor rules I like when she sings sir Patrick Spens too.

[bcginc]

[xan0quita]

That is my favourite song EVER!

[Katesghost]

What an incredible voice has June Tabor. This is wonderful!

[marcusvanstory]

Perhaps the finest British female voice of the 20th century. (And I include Sandy Denny in that..)

[fluffaholic]

My favourite track on June's CD "An Echo of Hooves"

[jeanhoel]
