There have been plenty of artists around over the past ten or so years inspired/influenced by this sort of music, ranging from the sublime to the unlistenable. To these ears, some of the best have included In Gowan Ring, Fit and Limo, Espers, Feathers, Nick Castro, Kitchen Cynics and Pamela Wyn Shannon. My gripe is that some of the other post-Wicker Man wyrd-folkies are trying to hard to be experimental at the expense of a decent tune. And don't get me started on the self-indulgement, self-referential and frankly tedious world of "neo-folk"!

Judy D - no offence intended! My list was created off the top of my head with no reference to my rcord collection, which does indeed include a copy of the Trader Horne album. I also missed Spirogyra, Heron, Dulcimer, Stone Angel, Tudor Lodge and many more. "Morning Way" is a wonderful song. Thank you for it!
