Kate Wolf...be still my heart. Now SHE has shared so many good songs. Thanks for looking for Corrymeela, my search will continue as long as it takes. Right now I am working on The Holy Modal Rounders "Sweet William" as played on banjo so interestingly by Peter Stampfel. After 20 years these characters are together again and performing in the Boston area next week, so I am so curious to see how the years have sculpted them! Summerfest was the success we have all come to expect. There were musicians from all nooks and cranies of the globe. As usual, the highlight was the after hours gathering on Saturday night. John Roberts of JR and Tony Barrand duo fame was playing my banjo and singing great songs in an endless song "duel" with one of our local Scots. What a treat, and only one of so many! We have a large talented music group around this area. Lots of great traditional singers...short on 'ol timey folk though. Very short on fiddlers, to my dismay, as my major passion for southern shit kicking or dancing (depending how sophisticated you consider yourself) music really needs the fiddle! Well, back to work. Thanks again for your efforts. Camille
