DESCRIPTION
Two CD collection. British folk and roots music never went away; the musicians who'd come up in the Sixties have continued to develop, record and bring the music collected in the 19th century to public attention. Folk is now getting the recognition it deserves for it's persistence in keeping British heritage alive - as witnessed by the music here.
