GUEST,erbert Jon Boden: 'A Folk Song A Day' blog-finished!!!! (125* d) RE: Jon Boden: 'A Folk Song A Day' blog 12 Dec 10


I only know Jon Boden for his work in Bellowhead,
one of my favourite recent bands,
but he's starting to get on my nerves a bit on the latest CD and TV promotion appearances.

I've been aware of his name for a few years but just haven't found time or inclination to explore his back catalogue.
So, out of fairness I've just been checking out brief samples of his solo CD
"Songs From The Floodplain";

yeah ok, I'm interested enough to explore further...

It's a voice not unlike countless 1970's prog and glamrock/artrock LP's I've enjoyed over the years..
and seems to me to be better integrated and more appropriately bedded into the soundscape of "Songs From The Floodplain"

So lets see how I can catch up on these 'songadays' for a better perspective,
and check out ebay for a cheap copy of his solo CD.
