A good article - short and to the point. Though I have but one or two folk songs in my repertoire (preferring to play traditional tunes, and to sing other stuff), "A Song For Every Season" is one of my favourite readings. It brings to life another world, and I'm lucky enough to live not too far from Rottingdean and the surrounding countryside, which makes that world seem just a little closer.

I have never seen or heard Bob Copper sing to his own concertina accompaniment!!
Great stuff.
