Title: John Barleycorn - who sings lead? Post by: RichardH on October 29, 2007, 02:08:02 PM On the Tipplers Tales version, please? This I'm sure is an easy one for those who know but I can't make up my mind. Is it Swarb or is it the younger Simon influenced by Swarb?

I do like this version, especially Swarbs fiddley bits in the middle, though it does seem strange to hear it without the enlongated last note ;D
