Folk music! Neat thread. Bob Dylan refused to let the press label him as folk, I remember hearing him say something to this effect when I watched that old Bob Dylan movie - rats, now I forget the name of that movie! But Joni Mitchell, oh my god, what an amazing "folk" singer! What an amazing singer & poet, period.

The Secret of Roan Inish soundtrack goes on my "to buy" list. I just saw it yesterday, when I was music shopping at an electronics store; can't believe I didn't buy it then. Oh, well - yesterday's music budget was craving Hendrix and Marvin Gaye, so I guess Roan Inish is for another day...

Definitely, she has such a beautiful voice! My mum introduced me to her early stuff (more her generation than mine ) and some of the songs are just wonderful.

I probably would if I were in Oxford, but I'm at home at the moment. You?
