I think there's somthing poetic about hearing the first recorded performance of the song that was to be his last recorded performance :)

@ambyyy1 I actually had to set up a You Tube account just so I could second this comment. Thank you, Kelly, and thanks for saying it, ambyyy1.

Listened to Luke from the very start of the Dubs, still listening to them to this day. Must admit I have never heard Luke struggle for any note. He was, and still is the Pavarotti of the Folk world. There will never be another Pavarotti, neither will there ever be another Luke, just a unique talent. That's all there is to say, rest easy Luke, you and the former Dubs will never be forgotten throughout the generations to come.

Wonderful to hear this earlier version. Higher key of course than the one we're more familiar with and you can hear Luke strain a little for those high notes. Glad he took it down a few steps later on.

the recording technology is not so good but the power of the voice overcomes all a gem
-
I love the way he says 'I hope I can do it, but we'll try', and then you hear the immense power of the first few notes he hits. Beautiful.
