Folk News lives!

Older folkies may remember the folk mag I ran under that title in the
Sixties and Seventies (God! that's 30 years ago or more - doesn't time pass
quickly when you're having fun!). Well, I've resurrected the name for this
blog-plus-mailing list. Blogs (short for weblogs) are the latest thing on
the web, providing a degree of reader interaction impossible with passive
web pages.

Blog membership is by invitation only, so anyone wanting to join should
send a message to karldallas@blueyonder.co.uk with the words "Join Folk
News" in the subject line.

BTW, I am the featured guest at the Topic Folk Club, Bradford, on Thursday,
September 18, and my special guest will be a remarkable young lady I met
when I was singing at the Wallingford Folk Festival. She goes under the
strange name of KTB (her first name is Katie - geddit?). Her style is very
unusual, with touches of blues and bossa nova, though she does lovely
unaccompanied traditional ballads as well. She's a very fine, rather
jazz-tinged guitarist.
