First comment on Peggy Seeger's Bring Me Home from Mike Harding on BBC Folk On 2: "I love Bring Me Home - it is so so good - like old friends, good music, a warm fire and a cold night outside. More power to your elbow!" And first on-line early reviews that just glisten.

Laura Fuentes y Calicanto enjoyed Walt Michael's Common Ground on the Hill's Traditions Week at least as much as Pedro's and her happy students. Laura's Diary is a rare review of folk music and learning form the performer's point of view.

Like many jazz musicians, Peter Siegel is a prime part of many occasional bands including the swing/roots trio, Housetop. A great review of their October 26 Brattleboro concert was written by Bob Audette in the October 26, 2007 Brattleboro Reformer.

Peggy Seeger, whose Three Score & Ten review by Lahri Bond's can be read in Dirty Linen’s August-September 2007 issue, will be touring Australia in February-March and the UK in May.

Ken Hunt's brilliant retrospective of Peggy Seeger in FRoutes, based on an interview around her 70th birthday party concert at Queen Elizabeth Hall in June 2005, can be found on http://pegseeger.com/html/frootsinterview.html.

What an amazing letter from Cherie Westfall in praise of Laura Fuentes and John Leonard Harris and with some praise for Real People's Music as well.
