Subject: RE: English folk is 'world music'?
Anahata,Twenty years ago,Damien Barber was a professional singer.
plus Steve Turner,the young Lee Collinson,a young Roger Wilson The Wilson Family[two of whom were in their twenties [mike and ken],Beggars Velvet,Tim laycock[early thirties],Nic Dow[thirties]Artisan[Idontknow I didnt /dont ask women their age]Pete Morton,thats a very strong line up.
Anahata ,Idont know where you were,but I was there.
finally, I urge everyone to obtain and listen to Pete Castles version of Two Magicians,which was way ahead of its time    innovative,imaginative,and cross cultural,mixing eastern and western musics and Musicians,but never got proper acclaim because,it was never pushed by those people who claim to be lovers of world music.
Ian, that was one you missed ,but shouldnt have done.
