Jay Black on lead vocals with a strong adaptation of a folk melody with a beautifully layered vocal arrangement of this song (also know as "I Gave My Love A Cherry"). "The Riddle Song" was an English Child Ballad that dated back several centuries, but which had been widely recorded by American artists (including Pete Seeger, Joan Baez and Sam Cooke) since Burl Ives had included it on his early Forties debut album Okeh Presents The Wayfaring Stranger. Trad. adpt by Kupersmith.
