June really conveys this song in a powerful way. I like the band but it's a bit too overpowering here, think it would sound better if it were softer IMHO.
Always huge respect for June T; one of our very best English singers. But - don't want to hear this version! The band destroys it - it's not a rock song!
The best folk album EVER
My favourite version of this fine song.
i bought the album and then the cd for this song and Dives and Lazarus; obviously i love it.
Great voice :)
This is totally 5 star fantastic
They really kick the original to the curb! Brilliant Punk Version if you ask me.
I'm a great fan of Steeley Span, but this version is really the best
halfway between steeleyee span and the ramones
Agreed re: the band part, and prefer the Steeleye version.

Why not a rock version?

Only if it allows the song to tell its story. Steeleye Span's version does - this version doesn’t.
