It's Rock Island Line by Lonnie Donnegan, But the advert is not the Donnegan version nor is it the original Huddie "Leadbelly" Leadbetter version... Does anyone know who this version is by ??

I've been reliably informed by my hubby, (old fart that he is) that IT IS LONNIE DONNEGAN!
He says it is his version of the song...

yeah i agree (although i am not an old fart, just listened to the lonnie donnegan track and the ad at the same time)

Well it must be a different version then, 'cos I've got a Donegan LP with it on and it's not the same
