Having just (finally!) received my copy of the latest album from Malinky, "3 Ravens", I was pleased to discover in the liner notes this little shout-out to the Mudcat/DT (italics are mine):

"I DREAMED LAST NIGHT OF MY TRUE LOVE

Versions of this song exist in the traditions of Scotland, Ireland, England, Canada, and Appalachia - an early version dates back to 1630. In the age of music being widely recorded and available, people can obtain songs from many different media and not just from other singers. Mark took a longer (and bloodier) version from the mudcat.org database and combined it with the version he first heard on a recording of Eddie and Finbar Furey."

"3 Ravens" (Greentrax, 2002) is a very nice record, and Karine Polwart's singing just gets lovelier. If you're interested in young folkies holding up the banner, check it out!

Cheers,
Michael
