Hi Martin!

Hello Purple Foxx. Yes, I could do songs of the North-East, though I do think that there are some that are better sung by a man. There's "Here's the Tender Coming", which is a pretty one, that I haven't heard live in a long while. "Byker Hill" - I think I've got an old LP with Martin Carthy singing it - yes, that's a possibility.

Hello Foolstroupe. Other versions of "The Black Velvet Band" - I shall investigate. Though there's a possibility that my mind would revert to the older one that I already know. It would certainly give it more life.

Hello Crystal. I will probably sing "Busk, Busk" next week. I've just about got it off.

Thank you all for the suggestions!
