jamesblatchley@hotmail.com Comments: Hi.
I would love to know the words to Bob Pegg's wonderful song 'A Dram For The
Singer'. I have most of them but the first verse is so difficult to work out.
It's a beautiful song and I would love to know the words. Also,
does anyone know the words to 'Wizard Of The Worldly Game' by Fairport
Convention which appears on their album Angel Delight. ******************************************************************************* Name:

ammoniteuk@yahoo.co.uk Comments: Dear all Hope you
dont consider this to be spam, as it is something that could definitely be of
interest to local folk musicians and music fans. I thought
I would drop you a line to let you have info on a new service that is being
launched in November. In
connection with Mark Coyle, I am launching a folk music (in its broadest sense)
music download site. The site
aims to make available deleted albums or previously unreleased music by artists
that could be either new to the scene or well established. Such titles will be
available to download via a secure server in high quality mp3 format. This is
similar to the service offered by Itunes or Napster, but is different in a
number of key respects. 1. The
artist receives a 50% royalty (compared to the industry standard of 20%) 2. The
artist pays NO fees or commission for this service 3. The
artist receives a monthly royalty statement with payment in full 4. We can
work with the artist to make this an effective free to use promotional tool and
include, biog, photos, press cuttings, etc along with a link to the artists own
web site/ 5. ALL
accounting processes will be available to the artist, so that they can be sure
they receive EVERY penny of earned income. 6. We are
a site dedicated to folk music. There will be no rap, hip-hop, heavy metal or
rock music I'm sure
you will have a number of questions, but hope you might take a minute to look at
the beta version of the site which is now on line at http://www.wovenwheatwhispers.co.uk On the
site you will find full operational information for both artists and customers. However,
if you have any further questions don't hesitate to contact me. Best
wishes Ian
Southworth PS. This
service is only applicable for music to which you own the rights (ie, not still
owned by a record company) ******************************************************************************* Name:

geoff.thorp@googlemail.com Comments: This was my first visit (10/01/2006) which I was introduced to by Mark Dowding! Living for the last 20 odd years in Bedfordshire, I miss the Northern accents and Lanky folk music. Can anyone give me a contact address/telephone number or will they pass on my email address to Bob Morton or Gerry Murphy from group Canny Fettle or Joe Kerrins who used to sing at Harry Boardman's folk club in the early 1980s? By the way, |I loved the website! ********************************************************************************************************************** Name:
