The new Waterson/Carthy album 'Holy Heathens and the Old Green Man' has some perfectly wonderful stuff on it, I was listening to it on Saturday - regretably I couldn't afford it so if anyone out there wants to buy me a present....?! (You have to try don't you!)

The Coope, Boyes and Simpson latest effort 'Voices at the Door' is also bloody great - they're at Hitchin folk club in 2 weeks time...

I did discover a great one on a 'parnd' stall - £1.99 for 'A Box and Banjo at Christmas' - old favourites played on a banjo and concertina... great for putting on 'shuffle' and scaring your guests!
