  1. Radio 3 mixtape just included 'Boney was a warrior' Malcolm Arnold's version
    It reminded me that we used to sing it at school, one of the songs we learned late 50s, v early 60s thanks to BBC Schools Service 'Singing Together'.
    An odd choice though... maybe

  2. As I continue to work on my #folksong album recordings, this song keeps coming up as a clear "roadmap" (if you will) for the stories I want to tell.
    Thanks for listening (and watching the video)

  4. I don’t like horse racing, but I do like traditional songs about it. Martin Carthy does them better than most. #traditionalsong #folkmusic #guitarist

  5. ' With her simple box camera and cylinder phonograph, wearing trousers and a bow-tie, Frances Densmore spent years traveling to remote settlements where no scholar dared venture. She worked with dozens of tribes ... Everywhere she went, her pure-hearted devotion to preserving traditional music magnetized the warmth of the community. The eminent Sioux elder Red Fox adopted her as a daughter. '

  6. CW: Caution, contains #Folk

    Every Thursday I, or one of my minions, opens up a room on Clubhouse and a bunch of us sing #TraditionalBallads and #FolkSongs for an hour or so. Why not join us?

    We're pretty relaxed about what counts as a #TraditionalSong, but this is definitely a session that usually has a body count.
