Giant Folk Eyeball (inactive) Folk albums of 2007 (116* d) RE: Folk albums of 2007 31 Oct 07


Bellowhead and Bodega are thoroughly modern and definitely not 'contemporary'. I really don't like that term - nothing any good ever gets called contemporary except slightly old art.

Bellowhead I saw live not long back, here in Manchester.I dragged some non-folk friends along who had a riproaringly good night out. Sadly they still don't like my 'Spencer the Rover' ringtone... maybe the Coppers are too southern for them?

Meanwhile I'm listening to Bella Hardy's CD as I type. Another great voice and yet more lovely arrangements. How healthy is traditional music at the moment?

Cheers

Nigel
