Last October (can it really be that long ago?) I "attended" the ballad swap session at the Bascom Lunsford festival, and promptly acquired two or three new favourite singers; here's the list of performers.

Naturally I wanted to rush out - or at least rush online - and buy some CDs. This was easier said than done. I looked on Amazon (ptui!), Bandcamp, Discogs, I even tracked down a couple of record stores in Carolina - nada. I identified a couple of CDs as at least having existed, but nothing I could actually get my mitts on.

Anyone know where admirers of the singing of (e.g.) Donna Ray Norton, Joe Penland or Peter Gott can actually get hold of it in physical form? Or (I'm not fussy) anyone who sings the same kind of material in the same kind of style?
