Cover of BANKS OF THE SWEET PRIMROSES, THE in 1952 - from Sussex; Bob, John, Jim & Ron
Cover of BOLD FISHERMAN, THE in 1987
Cover of TWO BABES IN THE WOOD in 2005 - the next generation on cd Song Links 2; it was a Copper's tradition to sing this song polyphonic at 11 pm on Christmas eve, while ham and rabbit pie was being served; while half of the table took a bite, the other half sang two lines and vice versa; in the interest of everyone's digestion this version was reduced to three verses
