Of course it was nothing like the Trans-Atlantic Sessions (please bring them back). But was it meant to be? It would be useful to know what the planned remit of the show was and who was in on that planning.
If it was meant to be a thrown together leisurely, kind of last minute lark, then I think it worked.

I still love the steampunk clothing and the guy in tights made me laugh. So what if he was a bit attention grabbing. He was invited to stand up an show them off.

Adored the Tar Barrels song performance.

As said before, I would like another show and maybe a bit more serious quality in areas of content, format and tech. Maybe initiate the unconverted into the quality of music we want to preserve and promote?

I just want more. I don't have enough live music in my life (not in my local area) and getting on telly is filling a hungry void.

That's my take as a 52 year old, American living in England, new to folk music fan, and I am sticking to it.
