Ah so it is the same Studs, I was going to say I didn't think he had much of a singing voice! Might be worth buying then along with The Weavers CD that I have just found in Amazon's 3 for £10 section. Re Billy Bragg have you heard "Mermaid Avenue"? Bragg & Wilko recording Woody Guthrie - quite interesting.

Thanks for the info on Studs.

You're welcome Steve!
The set is very cheap (19 euros/10£ maybe) and come from a german label.
It's well recorded evenif the sleeve takes to those cheap compilations.

About Bragg's i'm still at "Greetings to the new brunette" times!
I had some of his albums passing by my hands in the 90s but i own no one of his albums.

Some of Woody's albums (songs collections) did follow me for some years up and down the country but were in the lot that went away together with "Will the circle be unbroken" II double vinyl and another very good tribute vinyl: "A vision shared" that came out in 1988.
Hope i'll be able to buy the vinyl version back again one day!

Cheers!
Gianluigi

PS: Judy Collins sings like an angel!

And Guy Davis makes me shiver!
Waiting for Indigo Girls turn.

Hi Gianluigi
Well if you need a CD of "Will The Circle..." & "A Vision Shared" let me know...

As for Billy Bragg, once you get "tuned" to his voice I think the early stuff is outstanding, especially: "Life's A Riot With Spy v Spy"; "Brewing Up With Billy Bragg"; "Between The Wars" and "Talking With The Taxman About Poetry". I'm not a great fan of his later stuff but "England, Half English" had good reviews.

I'll try and find Where Have All The Flowers Gone, I'll probably have a look in Germany next time I am there - thanks for the details.

And now:

A Sample Of Blue Notes (1987)

Ah no!! First three I see on the second site, 2 albums by Arlo Guthrie and Wenn uns nur Liebe bleibt (Hoffmann singt J.Brel)
I need to stop visiting this forum! Thank you Gianluigi for pushing me nearer to penury

And now first spin to this:


I din't know it was out with two different covers:

My CD player being in Salisbury for some TLC prompts a delve into some rarely played vinyl. Human League-Dare next I guess too.

Currently the Brahms German Requiem from Giulini and the Vienna Phil.

Earlier it was scenes 1&2 from Das Rheingold (Karajan and the BPO - very interesting indeed).
