Thankyou so much for uploading this, i have never heard this until tonight but i feel like i know this song its really touched me, and struck a chord with me ;) its a hidden treasure ;)
Does any one know how this song is playd? Does she use a DADGAD tuning, or something else? Found Bert Janch tab for this song but i dont belive its the same arrenment.
@kmhob Bert originally played it differently & with a 12 string on the Nicola album. Anne features in part 1 of Acoustic Routes (Bert Jansch)) playing it differently yo this, on a 6 but much more like Jansch.

Does not get much better than this. Poetry from the get go: "Drawing water from the well, spilling over on the grass"... says it all.

This song outlines my sorrow in a way that no other does. I love both versions, but this version cuts me deeper somehow...

Spare and moving, this song invites an emotive response. Very good indeed.

The most beautiful female voice in folk, along with Baez...

@gnomebottom Anne briggs poops on Joan Baez. Lot's more influential as well. Doubt Bert Jansch was influenced by Joan Baez very much.

Never fails to send shivers down my spine - the definitive Anne Briggs track - and she gave it all up to become a market gardener in Inverness!!!
