Un o’r pethau gorau ar y weirlas yn fy marn I… I’ve got so much out of this podcast over the last few years. Been introduced to loads of great music, which I’ve often followed up on things like Bandcamp. Learnt loads about the history and context for songs and tunes, especially through the episodes on individual songs. It’s inspired to do ‘amateur’ research into music from my own area (north of Wales) and helped me make sense of my own music too. Great stuff, Ian!
If you’re like me, and you want your traditional roots music peppered with deep historical research and the regular black metal or dungeon synth track, then this is for you. It rules.
I enjoyed working on the railway so much
