The Book of Psalms for Singing
“The most popular English language psalter because of its comprehensiveness and sing ability. Originally published in 1973, The Book of Psalms for Singing has been used by congregations, families and individuals for nearly 40 years. Over 425 selections include all 150 Psalms in their entirety. Many psalm passages are set to multiple arrangements. Settings include many familiar hymn tunes, traditional tunes, some original arrangements and a few chants. Translated from the original language into English meter for singing. Includes 4-part music for each selection and 5 indices.” –– Product Description at Reformation Heritage Books
Various CD’s and MP3 downloads from The Book of Psalms for Singing can be purchased from Crown and Covenant as well. I recommend Psalms of Praise Vol. 1 & 2.
Purely Presbyterian 
These 3 Psalters are real Psalters. They are not chopped-up paraphrases like the 1912, URC, and most of the “Trinity” selections. This is my first time to your blog and it appears to actually be Presbyterian rather than Lutheran, Anglican, Catholic, as most “reformed” sites are now.

Hello there, thank you very much for sharing these helpful resources.
May I ask you where did you get that purple edition of the 1650 Scottish Psalter with John Brown’s notes? I can’t seem to find it available; I hope to be able to obtain such a copy.
