Any feedback would be useful and welcome.This CD of traditional folk music was passed on for generations and collected locally over 100 years ago. It was inspired by living on the land at music festivals ,learning about Red Indian, African, prehistoric traditions and energy lines and healing. Consequently a desire to connect with our indigenous song arose. In fact I found a folksong book at one with a song collected in 1904 from where I was brought up. Then the Big Green Gathering moved to Somerset, by chance right to the farm where some of my ancestors had worked and where Cecil Sharp had done lots of collecting. I found the songs from that exact area on the website for Cecil Sharp house and picked out some to pass on at the gathering.
