Thanks

Thank you so much. I just realized that my problem was that I thought I would simplify the process by using a download manager (Jdownloader)which should pick up all the links but seems to only get one from each group. If I go to the the WeTransfer page all the files are there.
My apologies for bugging you and I really appreciate you putting up these invaluable programs.
I'm appalled to hear that the BBC has no interest in acquiring copies for their archives - how short sighted. The people in these programs have made significant contributions to British culture including many who have influenced succeeding generations of performers.
Since the EFDSS is putting so much information on line might they be interested? Or perhaps the British Library Sound Archive.

WeTransfer has its own downloading (and uploading) processes. Its the fastest we know of.

BBC is not interested because the genre is 'folk' - period.

And don't forget the Down Home and Radio Ballad series of films.

I've downloaded everything that is still up but I think there are some earlier ones that I missed because I only found this thread in the past few days. Any more uploads of 60s and 70s radio or TV programs would be much appreciated. I hadn't realized how much stuff from that era was being broadcast.
I recently downloaded from usenet several Richard Digance and Friends shows from either the late 70s or early 80s. I listened to one with Martin Carthy and The Watersons which is great music but seriously marred by flutter in the tape - however it does have a great version by Martin of "Sheep Crook and Black Dog" which, as far as I know, is not available anywhere else.
If people are interested I can try and upload them.
Does anyone have a good database of these folk shows? The Genome site seems very limited - they only list 18 "Folk On Two" shows.

I have most of the above shows but I missed My Kind Of Folk from show 37 to 80. If any kind soul saved them, I would love copies. I'm happy to send anything from the lists by way of return.
Let me know on the thread and we can take it from there. Thanks.....

Hello,

Just stumbled on this very old thread - seems like there was some amazing stuff being circulated at one point, but of course the links are all now long-dead. Does anyone happen to have a copy of the following file that they'd be willing to share -

MKF43       Jake Thackray, Sinnermen and Sarah & Lynn & Grahame McCarthy

Also, I'm not sure which dates the Folk on 2 shows are from, but if the 26th December 1971 or 19th July 1982 editions are in there somewhere (both featuring Jake Thackray once again) I'd be very interested.

Thank you!

Any possibility of making the MKF files available again? Lots of memories .. ran the college folk club at Langham Towers in Sunderland ... booked Don Partridge (MKF42) and The Fife Reivers (MKF44) 1967/68 - also The Humblebums (MKF39). I also expect Cyril Tawney could be in the list somewhere?
