I love that 'RJ McKendree' album - one of my favourites of the last few years. I didn't know he was playing live - must look out for shows. Thanks Nick! I love it too (on cassette, of course)...

How could anyone not like an album that has song titles like "Bog Asphodel" and "Sad Portrait of a Dog"?!

The Lancaster Music Festival runs from the 12th to the 15th of this month. There don't tend to be many big names playing though The Lovely Eggs are doing a hometown gig at Kanteena on the Friday evening. https://lancastermusicfestival.com/index.html

Anyone looked at Cambridge line up this year? I rarely miss but so many acts this year that I’m not familiar with. Maybe need to be brave and see what they have to offer.

Only ones I recognise instantly, from lower down the set lists are K Priddy who supported RT in 2021 and Smith & Brewer who supported Fairport in 2020. Both enjoyable acts.

I think there are still some big names to announce, as Robert Plant seems the only one announced so far.

Law suits from Transatlantic Sessions, Oysterband, and Capercaillie etc. will be forthcoming...

You’re probably right about Transatlantic Sessions but Oysters and Capercaillie didn’t headline in their heyday so can’t see that changing now?

Ralph McTell has announced Cambridge, Sidmouth and Glastonbury.

Sunday headline announced today - Blue Rose Code Scottish Soul - including Steve Knightley, Karine Polwart and Justin Currie - sounds fun.

The current Rock n Reel magazine has a round-up of (mainly folk) festivals this summer and despite hearing of some being cancelled there is still a serious number of festivals which are going ahead.
Jacqui McShee is on the cover with the interview having taken place before Gerry's passing.

Rock n Reel is a wonderful magazine and such a great resource. I've loved the interviews, the editorials, the reviews, all top class and always a great CD to bring to attention so many artists making great music. If you haven't got a subscription, it's little money for a great treat every couple of months.
