Phew,

that's a hard one Jerry.

One of the 'joy's' of my life is making compilations, in the good old days it was on tape and then CD and now the ipod is ruling the roost. Which suits me fine 'cos I hate local radio here in the UK.

I particulary like some of your 'Rock at the Gatehouse' tracks.

I'll pick out a recently made 'comp' for the car and post the tracks.

regards

Ritchie

Hm...I think I would make some foot-stomping music with fiddles and accordines.


I might start with April Verch and mix her in with Sharon Shannon. Then Hank Williams and Geoff Butler of Newfoundland. Then some Quebecois..that group that was at Seattle Folklife a few years back..Mirapat? Then some Swedish walking tunes and waltzes. Then some Ukranian stuff. And Silly Wizard. And de Dannan playing Eileen Og. Throw in some Norski polkas and then some Cape Breton Fiddlers and I think I would be quite pleased.
