I fouind it about a year ago, and I adore it. Mostly. I'm still a little
irritated with how repetitive it gets with some of its songs, but I have
found several cool artists.
Funny...I found them, listened for quite a while, and then suddenly stopped.
Right about the time I dumped a bunch of cds onto the computer and hit
random....:)

So who are your favorite folk-music artists?

The same group that organizes "The Monthly Grind", our favorite monthly
musical event herre in Ketchikan, is apparently coordinating a concert
next month by American folksinger Gordon Bok. Since we get a fairly
limited number of outside performers travelling through and since this
sounds potentially interesting I'm planning on buying a couple of tickets
but I wonder if anyone here is familiar with his music and can tell me
anything about it.

Gordon Bok does wind-swept folk music from the coast of Maine. I love his
songs. Big on meaning, and sailing, and water, and other cool stuff.

That sounds like what the poster promised, and it should go over big
here in SE Alaska, where boating is a very popular pastime and many of
the residents have worked one or more jobs aboard a boat of some sort
(usually a fishing vessel) at some time in their lives.

By all means go to the Bok concert. I don't know the Maine coast, but I
have been to SE Alaska's, and his songs would go very well with it. Enjoy!
