- I have verified the track listing against the label and sleeve of an original vinyl copy. Side 2 track 3 shows "The Brilliancy Medley/Cherokee Shuffle", so nine tracks total. --Redrose64 (talk) 14:18, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
Track listing 2
editRedrose64 is right to point out that 'Brilliancy/Cherroke' is a medley and therefore only one track, however the title given for the latter part of that on the Talking Elephant release is "Cherroke Shuffle" not "Cherokee". Also a recent edit removed the "Jolly" from the "Poor Will" title - the hangman is definitely jolly on the Talking Elephant release, both on the back and on the insert, and in line with previous recordings of the song elsewhere - was this a mistake on the original vinyl issue?

- It was me who (deliberately) removed the "Jolly". The original vinyl may well be in error; however I do have a copy in that format (see section above), and can confirm that the sleeve states as follows:
- SIDE 2
- 2. Poor Will and the Hangman (5.37) Thompson/Swarbrick — Island Music
- 3. The Brilliancy Medley/Cherokee Shuffle (3.27) Trad. Arr. Fairport — Island Music
- The label on side 2 states:
- 2 POOR WILL AND THE HANGMAN (5.37) Thompson/Swarbrick — Island Music
- 3 THE BRILLIANCY MEDLEY/CHEROKEE SHUFFLE (3.27) Trad. Arr. Fairport — Island Music
- The bold, italic etc. are as per sleeve, not per WikiProject Albums conventions.
- Judging by the article Cherokee, and others reached from Cherokee (disambiguation), that is the correct spelling, and Talking Elephant are in error. Try searching for "Cherroke" - none found on Wikipedia; Google turns up 43600, many of which appear to be typos for "Cherokee" (such as "Jeep Grand Cherroke").
- I'm off to see Fairport play Didcot Cornerstone on 1 May. If I remember to pick up my copy of "Moat" before I set off, I'll ask Peggy during the interval whether the omission of "Jolly" was deliberate. --Redrose64 (talk) 14:50, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
- Forgot to take it. In any case, Peggy can't remember why "Jolly" was omitted... --Redrose64 (talk) 16:44, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
