A treasure trove of knowledge and talent combined with great humour and--oh yes , the usual slander and vituperative that makes it such a relaxed session . As Keith remarked , it gives all of us and excuse to hang around the pub in the afternoon—as if we needed one before
Music and songs-- tales of yesterday-- Artists of today. The folk tradition lives on re-shaping itself and morphing as time goes by--Artists past and present. and some poems and yarns. Stories from the old people and tales of the riverbank and fellside.

Another good afternoon session
The Belvedere session had ten yesterday, a nice mix of shanties and hunting songs and a couple of nice ballads , Good to hear and its a very rare occurrence that you hear the same song twice! The vast repertoire of the gathered congregation ensures that there are always new-- new numbers and new -- old numbers.

Fine fun and a song collectors dream!!
