Jim,
These transcriptions of interviews that you have made with traditional singers are both very interesting and very important and I have found them to be fascinating and I think that we need to thank you for posting them here. You don't need me to tell you the importance of context and function in traditional song. Whilst others have just cut'n'paste items that are already readily available on the internet to those who are apprised of these things, yours are the result of your own investigations.
They ought to be widely available to scholars. Are they? If not, why not? Go to it!
