Thread Name: BBC Folk Awards- Open and clear
Subject: RE: BBC Folk Awards- Open and clear
GUEST I think we should be told: I dont know quite what point you are making, but the entries for the second round were decided a month or two ago, and the outright winners I believe were settled last week. I certainly have two records out this year that would have eligible to be included in several categories(along with at least a thousand others folk CDs that came out this year), but alas my humble offerings didn't trouble the voters' pencils. (Possibly their content, 100% traditional, were a bit inappropriate? Or perhaps they are rubbish?)
But they do make excellent Christmas presents, so get down to HMV. They are "The Beggar Boy of the North", Greg Stephens and Crookfinger Jack, Harbourtown HARCD051, and "A Trip to the Lakes", the Boat Band, Harbourtown Records HARCD047. Buy now while stocks last, only three shopping days to go.
