Subject: RE: Folk albums of 2007
My faves of 2007, none of these are huge releases, mainly done for the joy of music rather than substantial financial return.
You can hear songs from most of them on MySpace, I implore you to have a listen:
Brother Crow: "One for sorrow" http://www.myspace.com/brothercrowfolk
Dave Gibb: "Avalon" http://www.myspace.com/davegibb
The Young 'uns: "To Hell with Pirate John" http://www.myspace.com/theyoungunsmusic
Wendy Arrowsmith "Now Then?" http://www.myspace.com/wendyarrowsmith
(Listen without prejudice....I have to declare a vested interest....I'm married to her!)
I haven't heard the full album below yet but I was there at the live recording and felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up at the harmonies (from the audience as well as from the stage!!!):
Keepers Fold: "Songs for The Singing vol 1"
Paul
