Very beautiful. Shirley is a lovely woman, a very sweet singer. She was a huge influence on the British folk movement. Greetings to you, Shirley, from Jarrahnut in Western Australia.

Beautiful, many thanks. Worth also checking out the version she did on the 1964 album Folk Roots, New Routes, with Davy Graham, though it's very similar to this as she plays is without Graham, again accompanying herself on the five-string banjo.

@Micky1964 Will definitely check it out - this is probably my favorite song on Sweet England.
