Will Ye Go to Flanders (audio)

This song is from Herd's Collection. The song is said to date from the Duke of Marlborough's campaign in Flanders in 1708.

The first and last verses are original, the second and third verses were written by Billy Ross, formerly of the the band Ossian.

The song is sung by Christine Kydd and includes both the solo song and two harmony parts so is really useful for group work too.
