| ________________________________________ [Feb 3,2011 5:14pm - ancient master ""] I dont know why but Irish/ British folk doesn't do it for me....I think its just that I've heard so much of it in my life. I do like The Copper Family though: bennyhillifier Check out Vedan Kolod...its a Russian trad. group that I first heard about when they put out one of my songs from Vysoká on a comp from their label S cythain Horn. It took me like 2 years to track down their albums, but totally worth it. I included "Wolf's Path" and "Plemena" albums The Dance of Wood Spirits would not fit. http://www.mediafire.com/?bdnbrmnozhsr42z Also, here is the album by Lithuanian group Kūlgrinda - Prūsu Giesmės (Prussian Hymns)...sung in ancient Prussian language http://www.mediafire.com/?8t4sjhxxjpt8zlk |
