Nic Jones sang The Green Mossy Banks of the Lea on his 1978 Transatlantic album From the Devil to a Stranger. Mick Bisiker sang Mossy Green Banks of the Lea in 1991 on his Fellside CD Home Again. Steve Turner sang The Green Mossy Banks of the Lea on his 2016 Tradition Bearers CD Spirit of the Game. Nic Jones recorded this ballad as William Glenn with somewhat different verses in 1978 for his album From the Devil to a Stranger. Another version was included in 2001 on his compilation CD Unearthed where it is called Captain Glenn. He also sang it in a BBC Radio 1 John Peel session recorded on 19 April 1977 and broadcast 26 April 1977. Apr 27, 2014 Here's my attempt at Nic Jones' 'Little Heathy Hill' which appears on his 'From the Devil To A Stranger' LP. I've had the LP for many years and this simple but beautiful tune has captivated me.
