Subject: RE: Which Trads are disappearing?
Our local session has lost a few songs due to the singer working night shift! We've lost others in the past too when the person who knows it moves away, or dies. Unless someone else picks it up, it leaves the repertoire.

When Naemanson sang NorthWest Passage at our folk club in November, it was the first time since we'd heard it since a memorial concert in 1997 or 8. There were shivers up & down spines as we listened & joined him.
