Got a few cds in the post on saturday - Lou Reed\'s Berlin - which is ace, but the one I\'d really been waiting for is an obscure Appalachian folk album by two absolutely stellar musicians. It\'s called Am I Born To Die (after the first line of an old Baptist hymn) by Mason Brown and Chipper Thompson, and by and large, it contains their versions of the folk music of the Appalachians, derived from Celtic folk tunes, Baptist hymns and influences from african music, brought over with the slaves. There are also a few traditional English folk songs - most notably the murder ballad Bruton Town. Anyway, it\'s absolutely amazing and criminally unknown - it\'s fairly cheap on Amazon since it\'s only about 13 years old and there have been a few production runs, and I\'d reccomend it to any fan of folk music.
