Jon Boden has launched a new project, A Folk Song A Day - you can read about the main idea behind the project.
As support for this project, we have offered to provide additional information on the sources of the songs, where possible, from our library and archives. You'll find the information in comments on Jon's site, and also on our own site in the News section. For example, for yesterday's song, Chickens in the Garden, we've provided more information on our own site. Amongst other things, you can see Anne Gilchrist's manuscript version of the same song if you search the Take 6 collection.
Thanks to Jon for all the songs so far - and the hundreds yet to come!
