Anyone have a copy of the Steeleye Span arrangement of these two tunes please ? Or know where I could get them ?

Here (http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~zierke/steeleye.span/songbooks.html) is a list of all Steeleye songbooks that have ever been published. #All of them are out of print. #As you can see, the two tunes you want are both in the 1974 "Steeleye Span Songbook" as well as the 1977 "Original Masters" songbook. #The former was on Ebay last month -- keep your eyes open and you may be able to get an antiquarian copy. #No hits on Abebooks, though.
If you're only looking for the tunes themselves, rather than specifically the Steeleye arrangements, they're both on ABC tune finder (http://trillian.mit.edu/~jc/music/abc/FindTune.html) (along with just about every other traditional dance tune).

Thank you.
I did own the music book, but we moved 3 years ago, and it hasn't been seen since.
That site you linked to is BRILLIANT. Many thanks, and happy plucking.
