The Full Entry
Folkin’ Hell, It’s Festival Time
Published Sunday, July 2nd, 2006 by Karl Bedingfield
With the Ely Folk Festival 5 days away Ely Online decided to wet the appetite of our fellow folksters with ‘Folkin’ Hell’, a little mini-mix of some songs the guy’s at Ely Online really dig. All in an accoustic vein, some old, some new and some just so downright ocscure you never have heard of them!
Enjoy and get ready for Ely’s biggest festival of 2006! For full details you can read our Ely Folk Festival event listing or go to the official Ely Folk Festival website.
See you next weekend. John will have a Dragon Slayer and I a diet coke! **cough**, sorry I mean’t a ‘kilt lifter’!!

Another smashing mellow mix from Captain Calm… wasn’t so keen on the second track but loved help me find myself… well, tracks 4, 5 and 6 really… 7 was slightly harder going =, 2 is a track I like anyway and 8 is one of those ubiquitous ones I’m sure I’ve heard on TV, like pretty much anything Air or Lemon Jelly have done…
Cheers
Enjoyed it thoroughly

Thanks for the comments, I love track 2 – a disco classic folkified.
Track 8 is indeed used on an advert. I hate when my obscure tracks suddenly become mainstream. It’s from Vashti’s album: Just another diamond day, it’s an absolutely beautiful summer album of innocence. Buy it now!
