All kinds of music I like and find interesting.

Rosalie Sorrells (1933-2017)

I just heard that she died a few days ago. Here she is singing a Utah Phillips song. (She was a good friend and often toured with Utah.)

Mance Lipscomb

Mance Lipscomb  (1895-1976)

One of those great blues musicians who lived and played most of their lives locally (in his case near Navasota, Texas).  Btw, blues and southern folk often flowed into each other, especially in Texas.

Now Westlin Winds — Dick Gaughan

Robert Burns wrote the lyrics. The melody is probably traditional.  (This is a repost.)
