And, please, let's not forget that CATHY FINK and MACY MARXER who won a Grammy last year, were nominated this year for producing the tribute CD to a great folksinger and performer for children, ELLA JENKINS. Ella turned 80 this year and she has exhibited no signs of slowing down.

The CD is called ELLABRATION !! and it is on Smnithsonian Folkways SFW CD 45059
www.FOLKWAYS.SI.EDU

All the songs are from the long song list of
Ella Jenkins. The performers are Red Grammer (formerly of the Limelighters), Tom Chapin, Cathy and Marcy, Tom Paxton, Bill Harley, Mariachi Los Camperos (a great track), John McCutcheon, Michele Valeri, Pete Seeger, Sweet Honey In The Rock, Mike Stein and Riders In The Sky.

This is just a wonderful album.
