of cool stuff lately has been my pal MJ, who pointed me to a site called The Enchanted Ear, specifically a story about Edith Fowke, who was a sort of Canadian Alan Lomax.

If you’re interested in roots music of any kind, you’ll love this stuff.

Yay
MJ’s back with thenewforum.ca. News in technicolor. Daily.
