Thread Name: Songs that haunt you
Subject: RE: BS: Songs that haunt you
Several songs that The NexTradition recorded are constantly in my head these days, most prominently "Sinner Man" and "Weldon." Kate Rusby's recordings of, well, just about anything, haunt me. What a great singer! Hearing Ed Miller sing Robert Burns's "A Man's a Man for A' That" last summer, backed up by 200 fiddlers, (me among them). It was a very moving experience hearing him sing that beautiful ode to brotherhood. It would make a great national anthem. Who knows, Scotland may someday be in a position to choose one.
