9 September - No Morris Round Up !!!! All Up.... I think not .. but some quality tunes all the same I hope you'll find in this weeks show

Hi all

Yes I'm afraid no Morris Round Up in this week's show as the Morris are not out and about in big enough numbers to warrant a This Time, All Up and Walk Round!  So filling the gap from not meeting your morrissing needs are more folk and blues tunes from the mail bag that lies within 'What's in the Post?' 

Remember you can listen to the show again on this link

26 August 2014 - We lay to Rest Horace the Morris an Original Member of Priston Jubilee Morris. Also some tunes......

Hi all

A sad day befell the Morris of England and Wales today as Horace was buried in Priston Village Church,. Aged 94 and still danced at his 90th birthday, Horace was one of the founding members of Priston Jubilee Morris so it is with much sadness that this week's 'Morris Round Up' is for him.  A rare outing for a live recording of Priston's 'Chuckie Stickie' to the music of 'Room for Ol' Cockold'. 

As Ange Hardy and Cara Dillon were in a Broadsheets list of best Folk CD's of the year so - and as I'd been sent both of them - I thought I'd play another track from said CD's.  All tunes this week come from CD's people have sent me via 'What's in the Post'; as was last week and many more to come I believe.  So here they are:

TRACK ................................ ARTIST
The Palace of The King ....... The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band
The Cull ................................ Ange Hardy
The Panic is On .................... SMILE
Chuckie Stickie ..................... Priston Jubilee Morris
You Ain't Going Nowhere .... Up The Creek
The Boy Inside The Bubble .. Matthew the Oxx
Mud Honey ,.......................... Joanne Shaw Taylor
River Run .............................. Cara Dillon
Cold Missouri Waters ........... Greg Russell and Ciaran Algar
Down Down Down ............... Tom Waits
