Hi Jim

I am not really into ballads but are monologues ballads ????...at many of the clubs and folk meetings up here in NW England you hear a few.

I know there is one performer of such right here at mudcat....

The ones I hear most are some that I associate with Stanley Holloway.

This link will give interested people some information.....sorry don't know how to do the clicky thing.

Happy New Year

Regards

Mike
