Instead of just listing folk singers who aren't dead, why not say something about them, or at least make a link to their websites, or something.... I see that Yorkshire Yankee did a very nice job of that above. Assuming nobody minds, I think I'll change some of the other names above into links. We don't change the text of posts, but we often do change text into links (I've seen only one complaint about that practice, which we've been doing for years; so I'm assuming people don't mind).

Lists tend to be tedious, IMHO. Same goes for the dead folksingers - why not give some information about them?
