Subject: RE: I'm making a folk notebook... From: open mike Date: 15 Jan 11 - 12:27 PM ask specific questions..."folk" is a v-e-r-y b-r-o-a-d subject!! if you search for specific song titles you will find previous discussions about them and info in the data base (D.T. short for digital tradition), where you will see different versions of songs and source info about who wrote/recorded them.... if you do not see a thread on that song, start a new thread with the song title you will be able to get more info...good luck. this is an international list. |
Subject: I'm making a folk notebook... From: EllenV Date: 15 Jan 11 - 12:12 PM ... and because there are thousands of versions of every folk/celtic song, I'm wondering if there are any artists (perhaps less well-known) that you Mudcatters believe have the best version of certain songs. For example, who does "Follow Me Up to Carlow" best? (I have Charlie Zahm singing this, but would be interested to hear other versions.) What about "The Dark Island", "Whiskey in the Jar", or "My Heart's in the Highlands"? Those are only examples; if you all think of any folk song that has a quintessential version done by a certain singer, post it here and I'd really appreciate it. Thanks so much, everyone. p.s. I apologize if there are already threads on this topic. I looked but didn't find any... restatement here (click) |
