I think you should start a new thread WLD....it would be very interesting to hear what others thought of your ideas...but it will get totally lost in this thread though.

Why not simply call it 'Who IS singing the folk music of today?'..go on...if you don't I will! ;0) It would be a great thread and I'm sure you'll get loads of people replying to it...and I can think of loads of answers for you, but I'd rather keep this thread to Mike Harding's music if possible.

Thanks
