I Love Folk Music

I really have always loved music and my family had a pretty good collection of acoustic (singer -songwriter)records. I always toward people who could play music and sing. I remember visiting the beach where a hurricane ,Bertha was expected and singing an ensemble version of the Grateful Dead's,"Bertha"{ don't you come around here anymore} It didn't😁

Anyway The British group The Magic Numbers don't make purely folk music but have been compared to The Loving Spoonful and The Mama and The Papas,because they are made up of a pair of brothers and sisters.
But they're quite comfortable doing unplugged performances

I was pleasantly surprised by this song. I really enjoyed it. It's going on my playlist.

@SW-User probably true but if you're making a video you'd better be doing both😛

@bookerdana If you're making a video, it better also not be the first time you listen to it.🙃

@SW-User i make videos for friends if i have enough images and a theme..and one of me singing🥵
OMG, me too. Last year my boyfriend and I took a trip to Seattle and then drove out to see one of my favorite artists in a small dive bar in Spokane. She's amazing!

I am also a huge fan of Shakey Graves. I was unable to see him live due to chronic illness but some day.

@TheFlippantSide Great stuff..did you know Whiskey is derived from the Gaelic term “Uisce Beatha,” which translates to “aqua vitae,” or “water of life." Now you know!😛

This is the kind of thing one usually only hears on KEXP or college stations like Courtney Barnett

@bookerdana Nice! I didn't know that and that's pretty cool. Plus I'm a huge fan of bourbon. 🥃

@TheFlippantSide I learned that from a recording of Finnegans Wake by the Clancy Brothers where Tommy Makem threatens to read the whole James Joyce novel 😀

never heard this
Vaughan Williams collected a lot in the early twentieth century, and incorporated them in hymns.

A lot of English folk has been overplayed now. I suspect we have Steeleyespan for that and early Joan Baez.
