TRADITIONS playlist for February 12, 2017
Last week, in response to a recent post I made here in the Folk Music Notebook (âWe Can Turn This Ship Aroundâ â January 18, 2017 ), Christine Lavin sent out the word to the singer-songwriter contingent of the folk music community that I was both receptive to and welcoming new topical songs. I was overwhelmed with the response. Over the past week I received dozens of songs on a variety of subjects â gun control, the environment, the sad saga of the Bowling Green Massacre, and of course some songs about the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I am still in the process of reviewing, but I scattered several during the course of the afternoon and there will be more to come in future broadcasts.
Some of the new songs I received include brand new recordings from Tom Chapin, Tret Fure, Carolann Solebello and Christine Lavin.
