Brian Peters,
I was thinking mostly of female singers. I mentioned Maggie because I figured you'd be acquainted with her singing. I mentioned Eastern KY because of my wife and the singers in her family.

Can't think of any male ballad singers who went high, but males singing a high tenor harmony are common in bluegrass music.

Jim Carroll,

Knowledge of American traditional singers is limited even in the states.

Hammons. No "D"

Me, a Brit?
What in the world have I said to give that impression?
