I'm listening to http://www.pandora.com which I understand is available only in the United States. I entered the name of Priscilla Herdman, who I think has one of the most beautiful voices in folk music. So, Pandora is playing me all sorts of beautiful female voices similar to Priscilla - Kate Wolf, Joan Baez singing "The Great Silkie," and others. Maybe it's not all pure "folk," but I think I'm in heaven. Now, if only they'd play Janet Russell...

So, the trick is to pick the one folksinger that you think of as Ultimately Sexy, and Pandora will pick you others of the same ilk. I made my choice an hour ago, and I've been in continuous orgasm ever since.

I am not sexy so I guess my music is not. I dig women that dig banjos, fiddles, and guitars. To me that is sexy.

I've seen Buffy Sainte-Marie play folk music (and various other kinds of music as well). Buffy is undeniably sexy, even in her late 60s.

Case closed.

To Joe Offer:

Priscilla Herdman recorded one of my songs on her 1980 release entitled 'Forgotten Dreams" originally on Philo to Flying fish to Rounder in 1993 where it currently resides. The song was/is called simply, 'Dreams' and is the last song in the collection. The original LP was expanded by 2 tracks and she elected to keep my track when the LP went to CD format. Hope you'll give it a listen some time. Cheers, jeffrey c. jones @ www.jonesongs.com

"and I'm thinking of all the times I've been told off for daring to bring sex into discussion of folk music and musicians."

Hmmmm is this the same Lizzy who censured me for commenting on the mention of chests in one of the other threads?
Is a crab with no claws niples?
Of course sex is folky!
Or doggy or Horsey
or........

Jayto:-

Banjos 'R' Sexy.

1.Well I'm driving down the highway,
Kinda surveying the scene
Giving all the chicks the eye
If yo all know what I mean
A trail of dust and broken hearts
But I don't give a damn.
I love em and I leave em,
That's the kinda guy I am.

2.It ain't my fifty gallon hat
Or my designer stubble,
My hairy chest,
That bulge in my Levis
Girls find irresistible
It ain't my daddy's millions
Or my open top Ford Mustang
My animal magnetism, my infinite modesty, or my all over suntan.

3.Now them good ole boys they envy me
I always get the girl
You either got it or you ain't
I tell them as my lip curls
You all cain't do what I can do
They all knew what I meant
As I leapt into the backseat
And produced my instrument.

Now I know some folks will disagree
But Its so plain for everyone to see

Chorus:-

Banjos are sexy, Banjos are cool,
All joking aside, those banjos rule OK
As I go round from town to town
I hear the folks all sing
Who's that guy with the banjo
He pulls the women and the strings.

4.Now John Wayne and Clint Eastwood,
Were both real megadudes,
But me , I put them in the shade,
Picking my good ole banjo tunes,
With it strapped around my shoulders
I'm feeling so well hung,
Let my fingers do the walking,
As it rattles like a machine gun.


My banjo makes me feel like I'm a King
At least it would if I could play the sodding thing.

Chorus:-

Banjos are sexy...

5.Mothers lock up their daughters
Slap asbos on my head,
But they all scream and wet themselves
As I hit that G spot dead on,
Then they'll throw their knickers on the stage,
I'll throw them back at them,.
or use then to wipe
The sweat from off my good ole
Five string friend.

Old banjos never die, you'll hear me croon
They just go slowly out of tune.

Chorus:-

then...

Les banjos ils sont sexy
Les banjos ils sont 'cool'
Ce n'est pas un badinage
Les banjos regnent le monde entier OK
Et comme je roule de ville on ville
On dit "Orgh, c'est le rock and roll"
Et donnez moi un homme avec le sexy banjo.

(Apologies for the pigeon French)

In "Country Life" (E. trad.) do we ramble "in" or "through" the new mown hay?...I've tended to sing the latter, but have heard a lot give it the former...

Brothers Four, The - Come to my bedside, my darlin' Lyrics

Come to my bedside, my darlin'
Come over here and gently close the door
Lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor

I've waited for you, oh such a long time
I plan a plan on every new day born
Words cannot express one thing I'm sure of
That it's in my loving arms where you belong

Your breast have told my ear life's golden secrets
Your back has shown my fingers endless roads
Your lips have whispered wisdom that is timeless
'Bout life and death and things I never know

Come to my bedside, my darlin'
Come over here and gently close the door
Lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor

Your eyes are bluer than the mountain waters
Your hair is flowin' dark and flowin' long
You skin has more gold than a morning sunrise
And it's softer than the breeze of the summer's Dawn

So come to my bedside, my darlin'
Come over here and gently close the door
Lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor...

Any more questions?

It's too bad that question could not be answered by the late Walt Robertson. Folk music can be very sexy, but we are really talking about the performance of it and the performers themselves, aren't we?
Come now; don't be coy!
