Title: Quick question Post by: JohnS on June 12, 2011, 08:59:24 PM Hi
Popped over from the Steeleye pages and just wanted to know who are the singers on the FC song Jolly Hangman (Full House). orry for blocking your forum which such 'easy' questions but its been bugging me who the two are. (and as you can guess I am no expert on FC!!) Cheers!! Title: Re: Quick question Post by: davidmjs on June 12, 2011, 09:14:57 PM It's called Poor Will and the Jolly Hangman and it's a Richard Thompson/Dave Swarbrick song...and they are both on vocals (with I think a hint of Simon, maybe even Dave Pegg...haven't got the original to hand to check).
Here's a nice version (although I think slightly slow)...with the original lineup plus Linda T... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0isPbo-5x5Y Title: Re: Quick question Post by: Jules Gray on June 12, 2011, 09:59:54 PM Yeah, Richard Thompson is the main vocalist, Dave Swarbick sings the main harmony, and Dave Pegg adds the occasional third part. I think.
