The Outlandish Knight (Traditional)

[MACHAWK123]

A very 'traditional' traditional song. Vocals fine, guitar - well does ever Mike have a bad day in the guitar department - of course he doesn't! Perhaps not the most accessible song he's ever done for the casual listener/viewer but I like it.

Ted's right foot looks swollen, but it could be just the camera angle, I hope she's OK.

I love this song and your arrangement so much!

I've been trying to do one myself, and It's only a fraction as good as this...

[ichingiching]

[NameNotaNumber]

Really excellent. Does justice to the Nic Jones version...and different enough to be your own. Love this song.

[ichingiching]

Were you aware that this ancient song was recited in 'Lark Rise to Candleford'; only slightly different in lyrics without the verses after her return to her father's house? The author says that in the 1880's 'it was out of date, even then, and only tolerated because of (the singer's) his age' - an old man of 83 who had learned the song from his grandfather, and he from his grandfather in turn. Wonderful to hear it, I thank you so much for bringing it to life.

[AquaticaTheHedgehog]

can you PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE make sheet music for this? i have to recite this for my school (im homeschooled) and i'd like to be able to play it on the piano or guitar. if you have the notes for the voice and the notes for the guitar i'll just put them together for piano but if you could make sheet music for me, that'd be GREAT thanks!

also, GREAT job with this your voice sounds like people sung back then :)

[ichingiching]

I am really sorry, I don't read music or tabs, I learnt this years ago, listening to Nick Jones, a well known English Folk singer. I just learnt to play in it dad gad and just let my fingers do the work. I wish I could help. Glad you enjoyed the song. M
