Description

Here's a virtual movie of the brilliant English Baritone Clive Carey performing the popular English folk song "I Will Give My Love an Apple" The sound recording comes from a rare 78 rpm shellac record probably recorded during the late 1920's from my collection and can be seen playing in its entirety on my beloved HMV 109 Gramophone at my videocurios youtube channel at this link.

"I Will Give my Love an Apple" is a traditional English folk song. It was arranged by Benjamin Britten[1] and by Herbert Howells. The song begins:
I will give my love an apple, I will give my love an apple without e'er a core, The song dates its origins back to the 15th century and may have had a Celtic origin the song also has strong connections with the English county Dorset.
