Notes(3-CD set) Among the 61 historic recordings on these three discs are recordings of many of the finest traditional singers including Bob & Ron Copper, Bess Cronin, Paddy Doran, Phil Tanner, Jeannie Robertson, Sam Larner, Seamus Ennis, Fred Jordan and Harry Cox. The emphasis in the presentation of this series has been weighted towards the social lives and values of the performers. This volume, however, focuses on the history and meaning of the songs. Our guest editor for the third volume is Steve Roud, formerly the local studies librarian for the London Borough of Croydon and the honorary librarian of the Folklore Society and now a freelance researcher and writer on folklore topics.
