Thread drift - don't knock Max Boyce. Picked up an LP in a second-hand shop last month with some pretty fair folk stuff on it. Tracks: Turn! Turn! Turn!; The Waters of Tyne; Bugeilio'r Gwenith Gwyn (Watching the White Wheat); The Cliffs of Dooneen (his spelling); Y Ferch O Penderyn (The Maid of Penderyn); Deportee; Whisky on a Sunday; The Water Is Wide; Will Ye Go, Lassie, Go; Yr Ga'dd Ei Gwrthod (The Rejected Maiden); The Road and the Miles to Dundee; Corrie Doon.

That's a pretty eclectic lot for a bloke who afterwards developed an entire career on catering to Welsh rugby fanaticism. It was made, by the way, in 1977, which was when Welsh rugby was in on of its golden eras
