Researched recording background
The screenshot identifies Michael as track 9 of Still Rowing!, a Highwaymen folk release whose published track list includes Irene Goodnight, The Gypsy Rover and The Glory Years. The listed performance lasts 2:57. Conflicting package and phonogram dates prevent a reliable first-release claim, so this release-specific entry preserves the album identification without assigning the original hit's date or asserting a new performance.
