Thread Name: Good Welsh Dance Music Anywhere??
Subject: RE: Good Welsh Dance Music Anywhere??
Compton, you might read the previous posts. I did mention that the Society is working on a new CD. And, yes, the recordings from the '60s and '70s now sound naff but revisionism is a waste of time. Mabon, Pigyn Clust, Crasdant, Jac y Do, Brothers KilBride and quite a few others are all recording dance music these days in what we CURRENTLY accept as an authentic idiom. Who knows what future generations will think of them?

Re: Welsh and Wales-based 'Catters, Mary is certainly one. There are others like Llanfair, pavane, Skipper Jack, Crane Driver, Nigel, Gareth, Ella, Llanfair, myself ...heck, I shouldn't have started because if I leave someone out, I'll be shot!
