    Am afraid the nearest I have come to buying folk music is Bruce Springsteen’s ‘We Shall Overcome – The Seeger Sessions’. However, I am always keen to expand my musical horizons so I look forward to your lists and recommendations!
    I suspect I am not the first visitor, but at least I am the first to leave a comment!
    Good luck with the new blog.
