Title: Fairport Span/ Steeleye Convention Post by: Nigel no longer of Lysander on June 24, 2008, 01:39:58 PM Tam Lin, John Barleycorn, The Beggar or The Card Song (basically the same song, different title; both versions played on by Mr. Mattacks), Bonny Black Hare, Si Begh Si Mohr, General Taylor have all been recorded by both bands so the question is :-
a) Have I missed any out ? and b) which songs could also be interchangeable ? Cheers Nigel Title: Re: Fairport Span/ Steeleye Convention Post by: AndyCarter on June 24, 2008, 03:12:42 PM They've both done Seventeen Come Sunday

Help me out, The Beggar or the Card Song - when have Steeleye recorded this? ??? johnnysaint Not sure about the Card Song...but they recorded "The Beggar" on Bedlam Born; one of their very finest records ever, IMO, and sadly overlooked by most fans.
