Slightly off the wall, but, it should be worth listening to Andy Kershaw's BBC Radio 3 prog on Sunday night. It features a session from the incomparable "Listen With Sarah".
Humour and Techno combined, but IMHO definitely Folk Music. Give it a try.

Ralphie my dear, how are you?

Sorry, but as a person of a certain age, I still can't get it into my head that Andy Kershaw is on Radio 3....

Anyone with MySpace friends as diverse as Alan Titchmarsh and Benjamin Zephaniah has to be worth listening to, though I await the prospect of morphing William Burroughs and Mozart with some trepidation.

Liz, Kershaw's been on Radio 3 for aeons now, the only BBC radio station any sensible folkie should be listening to.

Mind you, looking at the MySpace info on Listen with Sarah, I'm not sure there's much room for concepts like "sensible". This could be an interesting listening challenge...

Hi Anahata!!
Interesting listening challenge.....Good choice of words!
Have spoken to Sarah a few times, and can see a possibility of merging Trad music with her sequencing skills...Mulling it over as I type!
See you soon mate

Well I listened last night. Very Silly, particularly enjoyed the Trumpton track!

Will be on the BBC Replayer for the next week.

Playlist up now with replayer link.

There's also a very amusing Dylan/Muddy Waters/Hambone Willie Newbern sequence of Rollin' & Tumblin' which Dylan seems to have written retrospectively.

What with a track from Bagus Degoi's Party Like It's 1399 and Sarah Nelson's Tempus Trumpus, there seems to be some sort of a theme developing.

Snap Jon, have you still got the Wheatstone?

yeah. Still got it - Am in two minds whether to part with it. I wondered about buying a cheaper English and getting a Maccann Duet (Thanks to Ralphie for good advice on this one!) but I'm really struggling with deciding whether to sell it or not.

You keeping well Countess?

Cheers,
J

Nah, sod the Duet, keep the Wheatstone (sorry, massive thread creep, Ralphie won't thank us for that!).

Well worth a listen for people with an open mind regarding music
