I have been aware for sometime that my music listening habits are stuck in a timewarp. I need to investigate some good new bands. Not necessarily brand new stuff but considering that the last album I bought was Nick Drake...See what I mean?
My dear nephew Cyril tried to drag his old Auntie into the 21st century with a complilation CD but I didn't get it. Who are the Snow Monkeys anyway? And is it me or are the Kaiser Chiefs just Madness in new suits?
So do me a favour and recommend something that is accessible for a folky old fart, I am getting tired of Enya.

I can highly recommend Loreena McKennit- she's my absolute favorite.
...and if you're an old fart,where does that leave me?
You said you liked that! Well!
That's the last time i come yurr!
I've really been into folky type stuff lately....this can't really be classified as folky but, you may like it....they are called Camera Obscura....link to samples
This music is very upbeat and catchy...sort of romantic.....lemme know if you like it :)
Hold on! you're not old! (from someone who just hit 38, ya know?!)
I listen to whatver I darn well please and it's nobody's business to judge me... I've got videos of some of my favs on my blog's side column, but it no way represents even a fraction of stuff I like.
Just be yourself :-)
Lorraine: I'll check out you tube and fartiness is a state of mind. I've read your blog, (not to mention that fab saying of yours on Jerry's blog)
lol! Old fart you most definately are not :D
My Darling Cyril: I did like it, I just didn't relate to it that's all. You still love me tho right?
Jessica: Wow cool, you can put links up in comments! And I will check it out right now :)
Technodoll: I am 36 next month. Where did the last ten years go? Will the next decade whizz by as quickly? Arrrgh!
And I like all sorts of stuff too but I am stuck in a rut musically speaking. I need some new tunes.
Cara Dillon (Irish and kind of Folkish), Jose Gonzalez ... maybe I should make you a wee compilation CD!
What kind of music do you like?... would be easier to give you a link to some new tunes :-)
Well... I suppose.
When are you off to Ashblardiblargh anyway?
Pippa: That sounds good, I like Irish and the compilation CD would be fab :)
Technodoll: I like a lot of stuff. Folk, bluegrass,easy jazz, I like some heavy stuff (though not thrash.Really, I am after something edgy and contemporary, something to push the old boundaries, you know?
Cyril: Blogging in reception right now babe. Woo hoo for wireless :)
Dear Zoe, Don't bother!! :D
*blows raspberry at Cyril*
*Blows kiss at SianyWany* :D
Cyril:right back at ya babe
