15 Feb 05 - 10:43 AM (#1410447) Subject: RE: *plug* English Jon's New Album *plug* From: GUEST It's not yet listed on the Fellside site, but as its place in the catalogue between Ed Rennie and Peter Bellamy should give some idea of the quality. I saw Jon with Paul Scourfield (who is also on the CD) doing a preview recently which went down a storm at Islington Folk Club. (Big clue: Jon Loomes is a part of Whorticulture,,,) |

15 Feb 05 - 11:31 AM (#1410504) Subject: RE: *plug* English Jon's New Album *plug* From: English Jon Oh blimey! Well...I >live< in Doncaster, although I travel all over the place! Song titles... as follows: Jacky Tar, Ride in the Creel, The Ploughman, Rolling in the Dew, Grandfather's Polka/Polka d'avreyon, All for me grog, Seeds of love, Would you marry a young virgin of 15 years old/seven stars, Jupiter, Bridgewater fair, Riddles wisely expounded, Wild Boar, Fine flowers in the valley, Three Gypsies. Mostly unusual versions of well known stuff, with fiddle, guitar, hurdy gurdies, melodeon, english bagpipes and recorders. Texturally, It sounds a bit like some of the stuff on "penguin eggs" hope that helps! Jon |

15 Feb 05 - 04:11 PM (#1410897) Subject: RE: *plug* English Jon's New Album *plug* From: Charley Noble Jon- Thanks for clarifying what's on your CD. My group is also planning to record "Gosport Nancy" and are curious whether you were able to track it back beyond Cyril Tawney who collected this wonderful sailortown song but listed it as anonymous in his book of naval ballads Gray Funnel Lines. Cheerily, Charley Noble |
