Hello folk fans out there!

I am folkfan73! I am a new member since 12:57am on Friday, 14th May 2004. The 73 means 1973, the year I was born, in United kingdom. My main music is country but I still love folk music from folk bands, like Katherine Tickell, Carmina, Lindisfarne. I saw Lindisfarne live at Trinity Art Centre in Gainsborough years ago and bought a CD and had it signed, but lost the CD in a flat burglary. I reacquired another copy from insurance, but this was not signed, and signed copies are special. I also saw Vin Garbutt at the same theatre, and I got a signed tape called "Vin Garbutt: When the Tide Turns Again". Has anyone got a signed tape, LP or CD of this album from Vin Garbutt? I also saw Martin Simpson live. I think it was at the samwe theatre I mentioned earlier. I got a signed CD of him, and that was good, too!

I found a website that plays good folk music, at....

It is called "Towards the light" by Viking from Italy. Just copy this address and paste it in your browser. Has anyone listened to it? What do you think?

I also like pop, dance music, jazz, classical, gospel, rock, rock and roll and blues.
