Congratulations to Kathryn Tickell, the best performer on the awards. Nice to see Steeleye, I remember singing at the same clubs as Maddy Prior in the sixties, but where were the singer/songwriters. Although Karine's song was very pleasant there are far better 'down south' i.e. Les Sullivan and El Greko. Eddi Reader sang C & W. These awards are not representative of folk music in this country, only of what the BBC wants to put out.
