What Surreysinger modestly omitted to mention is that she and Ralphie Jordan perform an excellent and informative talk on the life and works of Lucy Broadwood, illustrated with songs, and backed up with some in depth research. Having seen this at Bradfield Tradtional Music Weekend I can strongly recommend it. Actually Ashgate sometimes do offer some of their music books for sale at half-price for limited periods, so it could be worth keeping an eye on their website, or even subscribing to their mailing list but you will have to resist the temptation to splash out on books such as 'Men, Masculinity and the Beatles'.
