Subject: A Folkie Challenge
A while ago, Bill D, suggested that I sing some different songs, so I've been going through song books and the DT looking for stuff.

It struck me that there are a lot of songs out there that no one is singing any more.

Here's a few examples of songs that I've not heard ANYONE sing for the last five years or more.

The Keeper
Tom Pierce
Men of Harlech
The Golden Vanity
John Peel
Lolly Too Dum
Skip to my Lou
Barbara Allen
Careless Love

and the list could go on and on.

So here's the challenge...
"In this coming week, learn and sing a song that you haven't heard anyone sing for at least five years."

and tell us what it is.

Bert. and I'll sing one on Mudcat Radio
