Amy, it is so nice to hear that a young person has discovered Joan's beautiful early material and is inspired - I'm sure we all are delighted and wish you many hours of enjoyment as you explore the world of traditional music. I was about your age when I "disovered" the ballads and have had many years of enjoyment, working out arrangements, meeting other folk enthusiasts - or just sitting in my living room singing the songs I to love. The songs themselves have become like old friends to me. Keep visiting Mudcat and you'll discover other great singers and songs, too!
