Subject: RE: What did you listen to last night? From: mattkeen Date: 12 Sep 07 - 06:54 AM I listened to my daughter, she wasn't singing or anything. She has just split up from her boyfriend - (unnecessary detail) Spent the rest of the evening quietly rejoicing at the thought of a new Chris Wood solo album as announced on the English Acoustic Collective website. Monday night went to the amazingly popular Royal&Derngate to watch the recording /touring "Sorry I haven't a Clue" team. Very funny - (unnecessary detail). |

Subject: RE: What did you listen to last night? From: GUEST,Barnacle Date: 11 Sep 07 - 06:00 PM I listened to Pint and Dale, live in our front room. After completing Great Yarmouth Maritime festival I invited the crew of the Grand Turk across for dinner and William and Felicia, who were staying with us, offered to play a little music. It was the cherry on the top of a wonderful festival and, as the Turk may be sold this year, it was a fine ending to the festival and what may be Turk's last visit to Yarmouth. Thanks guys it was something special Sue |
Subject: RE: What did you listen to last night? From: Becca72 Date: 11 Sep 07 - 02:29 PM Not last night but Sunday night I went to see Queensryche, Alice Cooper and Heaven and Hell (which is bascially Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio singing). It was AWESOME. Obviously a far stretch from folk but I have loved Alice Cooper since I was about 6 years old and he was on the Muppet Show. I've seen him live 3 times now and he puts on a hell of a show every time. Last night I recovered. :-) |

Afterward, I went for a drive and put on a new CD that I jsut purchased and new nothing about, but it sounded interesting. "Mr Peters", an accordian player/singer from Belize. WOW!!. There's no point in trying to describe it, but if you like traditional Caribbean music, this guy is a must for your collection. |

Subject: RE: What did you listen to last night? From: The Borchester Echo Date: 10 Sep 07 - 02:45 PM Good grief, not many of you actually go anywhere, do you? (Well done to Nigel for driving out to the John Dipper Band at Southport). I saw Karen Tweed (who did a Dipper tune) with Roger Wilson and they were fab. They began with John Kirkpatrick's Seven Up and because it's such a good tune, did it as an encore. A fine old custom worth reviving. |
Subject: RE: What did you listen to last night? From: Bill D Date: 10 Sep 07 - 02:36 PM about 6 videos on YouTube of The Beers Family on Pete Seeger's "Rainbow Quest" series from 40 years ago! Such wonderful music & memories. |
Subject: RE: What did you listen to last night? From: GUEST,albert Date: 10 Sep 07 - 02:33 PM I was listening to Lowlands by Jean Redpath and Abby Newton and fine it is too! However,I want to defend "Mr McColl from the base charge by Bryn Pugh that he damaged the folk revival.What absurd tosh! Ewan McColl was a towering figure in the folk world as a writer,collector and singer of traditional material.He also encouraged young and talented singers and musicians around him.The Radio Ballads were landmark recordings and many of his own songs have passed into the tradition.I am thinking of such songs as Dirty Old Town ,the Manchester Rambler and The Terror Time. albert |
