Well I think I'm on my own here. I really love political songs.

One of the things that really drew me into folk was the Third Programme production, The Northern Drift. Alex Glasgow singing My Daddy is a Left Wing Intellectual. Also Woody Guthrie, and Ewan MacColl of course.

I loved folksong turning up in the Ban the Bomb type playwrights - John Arden's Sergeant Musgrave Dance and Henry Livings Nil Carborundum.

Also the Irish rebel songs, and Leadbelly singing Bourgeois Blues.

On reflection, i think the politics is the best bit.
