Description
The widely acclaimed VOICE Of The PEOPLE series continues with four further volumes of the finest Traditional Song, edited by Dr Reg Hall and compiled by some of the foremost folksong experts.
Rod Stradling was invited to select and present his choice of material for this volume. A singer and musician himself with over four decades of experience, he has associated regularly with countless traditional singers and musicians and for many years he played the melodeon in the Bampton Morris.
Sarah Makem has been widely regarded as one of the finest Irish singers of Traditional song. This collection has been carefully compiled from classic recordings made in the 1950s and 60s. Rod Stradling carefully hunted out sound recordings that would have otherwise remained in obscurity and for providing a wealth of biographical material.
