Frank ITS, I tried to get a copy of Sam Henry's Songs of the People through interlibrary loan, and was told that there were no copies available for inter-library. Guess it is one that is fairly often "borrowed" forever. As you all can tell by now, I try to get my tax dollars worth from the libraries. Don't have the $ or space to expand my private collection. Maybe someday. Maybe when we can find all these great songbooks through Max and the Mudcat online store. I found the Fireside songbooks in the local public library, from which I learned a couple of R. Burns songs and some obscure Christmas carols. Good family music books. Alice in MT
