Here are some story-songs, grounded in old blues and British folk traditions, performed by musicians for whom the past is just a starting point. Host David Garland offers the distinctive, captivating voices of Woody Guthrie, Connie Converse, Alasdair Roberts, Sam Amidon, and others; musicians old and new who all have stories to sing.

Thanks Jamestop... got it.
Still waiting for the full list... it is a great show.
For the commenter looking for the Alfred Deller song featured on Singing the Story. I found an album on iTunes called Folk Songs, Alfred Deller - and the track is called She Moved Through the Fair.
Love it!
Just pledged as a sustaining member. Thank you, David Garland, for all the pleasure in music and always making me think.
beautiful playlist
