Here we have total agreement - and maybe a subscription fee donated to the collecting, annotating, archiving and making available all the other recordings and mss. rotting away in peoples' attics

And I know just the label we could do it in conjunction with too - an up & coming venture known as Folk Police Recordings whose heart is very much in the right place...
