"I won't name names, but I can think of dozens of top quality full-time life-long pros, who are not even on the 'suggested' list - even though they've had albums out this year which have been played frequently on BBC local radio stations and had glowing reviews in the National and local folk press - and some even write regular articles in the folk press too."

No, do name names... Its an innocent question.

Who would you rather see on the shortlist, and who should they replace?
