What happens when you leave the finest folk musicians around in a room...

Belfast Waterfront, April 3 2018. It was the night before the Radio 2 Folk Awards, and with preparations in full swing we invited some of the performers, guests and artists in town for one of the biggest events in the folk calendar to do what folk musicians do best... play.

I used to be quite a fan of Eliza, can't help thinking though she has slipped backwards on more than one front...

Personally I felt this was the first time I’d been able to stand tall after years of being ripped off and put down. I’m sorry it didn’t come across for you, but it was a happy moment. X

for me it was just the right song to sing together without i guess much practice. i enjoyed it and if other did not it's their choice. actually, it took me back over 50 years to folk clubs in west Yorkshire were i saw your mum and the Waterson's. here i have to confess i really loved Lal the most not only her voice but that look of mystery in her eyes. thankyou so much for this song
