[MR] Songs for Bardic Circles

[Douglas Grant]

I recall having cassette tapes (it was that long ago...) for the 'standard songs all bards should know' when I was out in Caid...but most of those that I recall are now out of fashion (when was the last time someone played "Burden of the Crown" or "April Witch") - now I tend to just collect songbooks, of which Master Ioseph's "Black Book of Locksley" is, so far, the most exhaustive I have found, provided you know or can find the tune - while it is mostly filks, there are many original and period songs in there...and goodly bit of his poetry...
 
Additionally, check out www.imslp.org there is a lot of good, period songbooks there (I found all of Dowland's works...)...sorry I can't tell you more about the taps, but if anybody does find them, I want a copy!
