Point well taken, Jim. Here is a YouTube Playlist (not made by me) of all (?) the original Radio Ballads. Sounds like you have wonderful resources beyond these...

"I would not normally link to whole albums on youtube "
I have no doubt whatever that those who made the Radio Programmes),some of them among my close friends), and certainly those who were generous enough to allow themselves to be recorded for its making would never have had the lightest problem with these wonderful programmes being an extended life beyond their 'sell-by' date
I have them all, along with some of the actuality and several more programmes digitesed so, if anybody wants them please ask

I have it on a CD. I'd be glad to tape it for you, but I don't suppose in this age that would do any good.

I would not normally link to whole albums on youtube but according to the Topic Records website (http://www.topicrecords.co.uk/song-of-a-road-tscd802/) the title is now deleted.

Here is the YouTube link: Song of a Road

Anyone know where I can find and listen to MacColl's Song of a Road radio ballad? The one about travellers and the one about the fishing are fairly easy to find but this one has been harder to track down...

Thanks
