A Yorkshire Garland by The Watersons released on Topic in 1966.

Sleeve Notes

The Watersons come from Yorkshire and they’re proud of it. So they thought they would make this, their third LP, a record of Yorkshire songs. But it’s more than simply an anthology of local pieces. The songs are too good for that. All these versions come from Yorkshire, sure enough, but most of them are songs that were spread all over the countryside because singers and listeners found them fascinating. In some countries, the folk music is in clearly marked regional styles, so that passing from one district to another is almost like crossing the frontier into a foreign land, so different are the musics. That’s usually a sign of isolation, of poor communication between one area and another. Not so with England. For centuries our roads have been too good, our population too mobile...
