minstrel: Performance styles was Calling On Song

[Patricia Yarrow]

Oops- I meant Mike Waterson's Tam Lin, on his solo album.  Bad pronoun
reference!  No biscuit!

You should hear his Tam Lin.  Really, you should, especially since you
mentioned the narrative elements of the ballad.  His ornamentation is
superb and very, very natural.]


I probably have.  Years ago when I saw Steeleye Span (at the Cambridge Corn
Exchange-- gotta love those town market holdovers!), Tim Hart "opened" for
them, a shameless case of double-dipping, but he wanted to do some of his
favorite trad TRAD, not as SS does it.
