CD GOOD PEOPLE TAKE WARNING

Popis - GOOD PEOPLE TAKE WARNING:
A three CD collection of ballads sung by British and Irish traditional Singers. 'Good People, Take Warning' is presented and selected by the noted folklorist Steve Roud from classic recordings made in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. Series editor: Reg Hall. The emphasis in the presentation of the Voice Of The People 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. It wasn't thought necessary by field collectors in the 1950s to enquire very deeply into the family and social background of the singers they were recording, with the consequence that they very often documented only with thumbnail sketches.
