Sidewinder: I've always enjoyed Hoagy Carmichael... thinking about singing Old Buttermilk Sky when I play at a "Home For The Aged" next week... no, not Mudcat.. :-) I just spent the last three days burning four CDs of jazz.. two of more recent jazz stretching back to the 60's, and the other two of Carmichael's era... Charlie Christian, Charlie Parker, Lester Young, and my two favorite jazz singers, Ella Fitzgerald and Carmen McRae.

Aw c'mon, Bill.. The question wasn't What folk music are you listening to now? They asks the question, ya gets the answer..

My mother has had since the 1960's an LP of Nina Simone In Concert, which has this memorable song with her intro:"The name of this song is 'Mississippi Goddamn!' And I mean every word of it." she sang from the heart: angry songs, sensual songs....

I've always enjoyed listening to Hoagy Carmichael's rendition of Barnacle Bill The Sailor, with Bix Beiderbecke heard singing in the chorus (it somehow went over the heads of the censors) "Barnacle Bill the shithead."

Tim Eriksen 'The Southern Girl's Reply'. As Eriksen comments, the song gets 'inside' the Civil War to where film and book cannot reach.

Isn't there another thread going on this topic??

Anyway, my 2-CD "Remembering Fred Holstein" is just great. It doesn't seem possible, but some numbers sound better than they did live. Rich Warren is an enginering genius.

My Ms. Clancy CD. (I can't spell that name.) All three Eliza Gilkeyson CDs, although "Babylon" is almost too bleak to bear. Three particular cuts on my Kane and Welch CD titled "You can't save everybody."(I think that's the title)

My own band's newly released CD, "Wednesday Night Fever." Homegrown. all folk dance stuff: jigs, rells, and waltzes. Of course I hear every weak spot, but on the whole I am inordinately pleased.

"Love and War" by Phil Cooper & Co.

I want to order Eleni Kelakos stuff but I can't seem to get a link for it.

Gee, and I wonder why I never have $$ to fix the fence.

An accidental find: "Avalon Blues - a Tribute to Mississippi John Hurt". I had never listened to John Hurt, but the artists on this tribute got my attention.
Various top artists on it. Made me curious to listen to some original Mississippi John Hurt ,too, so got his "Rediscovered" CD, and am now a John Hurt fan.
Also listening to "Going Driftless - a Tribute to Greg Brown" (and you'll hear Ferron on this-or was she on "Avalon Blues"? Will have to check. ). Checked out some Greg Brown CDs next, and was very impressed by his voice and his songwriting talents. (Greg Brown is husband to Iris Dement, who does a stunning song "The Train that Carried Jimmy Rogers Home" on the Going Driftless tribute CD).

The nations favourite (Radio 1)for the first time in years. Because a pal of mine told me Elvis Presley was going to be number 1. Silly so and so I thought:- but blow me down! The King is Back at number 1 again with one of my favourite folk tunes - Jailhouse Rock. Just shows you good music will always be revived and revisited by generation after generation.

Thank you Very Much Uh! Uh!Uh!

J. Scott Skinner "The Strathspey King".

Painful in the grand scheme of recordings, but not bad considering he died in the 1920's, when pretty much all recordings sounded like somebody beating a cat.

This has to be the most listened to cd's by me for some time now. Probably my favourite of all time.

Paula Morlenbaum has to have one of the sweetest voices I have heard.

Kiss "Destroyer" 1976

never listened to this before.. its excellent !!!

i'm a Brit..

in 76 me and my mates were into Dr Feelgood

Jack The Lad style folk rock..

60's mod & beat and 50's rock n roll..


provincial west country boys..

it was rough..

we nearly got into a fight at a bus stop with Led Zep fans..

so i doubt very much if we'd have got on well with Kiss back then..
