Thread Name: Mediation and its definition in folk music
Subject: RE: Mediation and its definition in folk music
Karl Dallas once embarked on a series of themed songbooks - not world-shattering, but interesting for all that
He did two. Songs of War and Songs of Toil, but was forced to abandon the project because of the demands of money from Dallas

The 'Voice of the People' series was originally intended to be a re-issue of the edited, 'Folk Songs of Britain' series with full versions - it was abandoned because of the same reason - this time, we probably gained more than we lost
I'm working on filling out the set for anybody who might like to hear the songs in full - I've digitised the booklet and combined it with the Caedmon version, which has a few differences
Will let people know when it's finished

As far as I'm concerned, nobody owed Kennedy anything - least of all, an apology
Jim
