I was driving during the Mike Harding show Wednesday teh 12th December 2007 - but just caught a bit of an electric version of a trad song with what sounded like Carthy voices on it.

I think Harding said it was someone's 2007 electric trad project with all sorts of big names on it...

What was the album and where can I get it?

Playlist

It was, presumably, Cold Haily Rainy Night from The Imagined Village about which you might just have heard, having been in Simon Emmerson's project box since the beginning of the millennium and launched at this year's WOMAD.

There was a feature on The Imagined Village in the Autumn 2007 issue of English Dance & Song magazine http://eds.efdss.org and a review of the CD in the Winter issue. I very much enjoyed the live show, which I saw at the Phil in Liverpool

Thank you. I had heard of, but not heard, "the Imagined Village".
