about

THE SEEDS OF LOVE (Roud no. 3)
The first folk song Cecil Sharp collected was sung by John England at Hambridge, Somerset in 1903. Sixty years later, it was one of the first songs that I learned, off an E.P. by Cyril Tawney, when I signed up for the big folk music scare at Yeovil Folk Club. Now, just over a hundred years after it was collected, I’ve revisited the song, having not sung it since the 1960s.
