Thread Name: Who's the 'Best' folk singer you know?
Subject: RE: Who's the 'Best' folk singer you know?
USA best male all-rounder - Woody Guthrie; best voice - Cisco Houston; best female - Hedy West; for sheer power - Lead Belly. UK best all-rounder - Nic Jones; best voice - Dave Burland; best female - Jacqui MacShee (shame about the backings on nearly all of her recordings). Changed a bit from '99.
