I have a recording of Steeleye Span doing "New York Girls" with Peter Sellars, of all people, on the lead vocal. I've never heard of Bellowhead; this is certainly a very accessible way to get an introduction!
Persephone I can only recommend Bellowhead with highest regard - in fact I just cannot recomment tem enough. Watch their live performances online - better still (short of catching them in person) get one of their live DVDs. They are vibrant infectious and joyous. A real boost to the soul.
Nuthin' easier, Lisa! Here 'tis (This YouTube video says Sellars does the ukelele and the spoken bits, while the male members of Steeleye Span take turns with the verses.)

OH, thanks, I'd never heard of Bellowhead, but after watching a bunch of YouTube videos I am impressed.
Happy to spread the Bellowhead love!
