Don't forget BBC GMR Sounds of Folk this Bank holiday Monday from 8-05 pm. 95.1 and 104.6FM.

The four songs from the Ballads that Ali will be playing are "The Manchester Exhibition", "The Calico Printer's Clerk", "A New Song on the Carters' and Railway Servants' Strike" and "The Telegraph Girls of Cannon Street"

"Calico..." and "Telegraph..." feature the original tunes which one or two people have already heard when I've sung the songs in clubs recently and hopefully you'll like what we've done with the other 2 songs as well.

Cheers
Mark
