Cleaning house and rocking out to some great olde timey music

Just thought I'd share.

This song surprised me on Pandora.  I love how dark it is.


Heard Aoife O'Donovan sing a version of this REALLY old song on Prairie Home Companion yesterday.  I liked her version better, but couldn't find it on youtube.  This version is plenty haunting, but there are too many non-rhyming lines for me.

 

Love the haunting characteristics of sacred harp singing.




Just love them murder ballads!  

I just realized there's a theme here.  At least amongst the three.  In this cold season, be careful with whom you do the Eskimo hop.
