No Hoot - I've no idea what Donovan is doing these days, but I was never a huge fan in his heyday. If you read my original post, I said "doing 'field recordings' of some of the myriad of superb but lesser-known singer/songwriters who are creating the new local folk music". I don't think Donovan comes into that classification, so I've already answered your question.

I've given you some examples of who I would include - people who are creating the new folk songs. You may wish to take the attitude of 'I'm not going to listen because I know I don't like them' but, believe me, you'll be missing out on a treat. Personally, I agree with Frank Zappa that "the mind is like a parachute - it only works when it's open".

Anyway, instead of sniping at my suggestions, maybe you'd like to adopt a more positive approach and tell us what you would do.
