I know exactly how you feel.


Joe - Songbooks: Depends a lot on what you're collecting for and your audience. Song history & the subject of cultural appropriation are more likely to come up with 'Modern Calypso' or the Lomax folk books around lefty folkies. Pop audiences are as forgiving as you are entertaining.

The Ella Jenkins and Raffi books are good for school groups. The vinyl or CD reissue and matching songbooks from the Folk Scare era are really useful if that's your thing. (Easy Riders, Belafonte, the Patterson Calypso LP, &c.)

I used to think the really classic stuff like Q posted was just too pricey for me but sometimes it seems they're not on offer at all anymore. Maybe we should start a preservation society.
