GUEST,Robert B. Waltz Traditional Ballad Index 6.5 Released (19) Traditional Ballad Index 6.5 Released 26 Feb 23

If this is too much shameless self-promotion, Joe, please close off this thread and I won't do it again. I haven't done this here before, but the other places I announce things are gradually losing their readership....

Anyway, this is to announce that version 6.5 of the Traditional Ballad Index, with more than 1400 new references, notes, and whatnot; there are now entries for 16734 songs (818 of which have at least 500 words of notes and background apart from the bibliographic references).
