Hi Folks:
It‘s RAYS CHAT Ninety Five
Have you noticed : Folk is changing??
Where Pop starts compared to Folk is much harder to say?
So: You get guys like Ed Sheeran;
Who can fill huge stadiums As a Pop Star. Or He will Sing Folk Songs; Like this:
Put in:
Ed Sheeran ?? Wild Mountain Thyme 2.13
One of the Great Oldie Folk Songs.
AND: I think He does it well.
And Then you get guys like this??. Gregory Alan Isakov
WHAT BOX would you put Him In??
Could be either?? But I like him
Put in:
Time Will Tell by Gregory Alan Isakov 3.25
Yes: Things are Changing.. And now We are seeing Singers going
Across the board..
Well; YOU already know; I have already blurred the boundaries by featuring Ladies like
Norah Jones and Katie Meluha.
Oh YES: Great Singers:: OH!! Let’s hear Norah NOW:
Put In:

Nice Sound:: But Are They Folk?? So What? Do YOU Like Them?
So: Now let’s have a change of mood:

I agree: it is Not Folk. But it is good to listen to; ENJOY IT.

Now: for something more Holiday Mood..
Maybe you are, like most of us, Not Holidaying abroad this year?? And maybe I can bring back some Memories of Happier Years.
So: Listen to the Magic of Nana:
This may well make you think of Sun and Blue Skies, and maybe lazing with a glass of Sangria:
