Whilst driving back from a folk camp today, I caught a prog on Radio 4 this afternoon about Cecil Sharp and his collection of the song, the seeds of love. It was very interesting, with comments from Vic Gammon, Peta Webb, Eddie Upton, Norma Waterson and Martin Carthy and others. It is well worth listening to and will be available on the Radio 4 website. It was on at 1-30pm (GMT) today.

Later on this evening at 11-30pm there is a prog by Lucie Skeaping about the history of bawdy songs - apparently called 'Hey nonny nonny and fol de rol'! again on Radio 4.
