What are some folk singers that you like?

I like Neil Young quite a bit, I also like folk music from other continents, particularly Scandinavian and Celtic folk music. This song is absolutely beautiful.

Re: The Chattanooga Choo Choo. I lived in Chattanooga for many years. The old train station is now a motel/hotel complex, with several old sleeper cars converted to very nice (or they were then) motel rooms.

Just audio, but one GOOD train song!

Michele and I stayed there several years ago, and did the usual tourist-y stuff like taking the funicular to the top of Lookout Mountain.

I love those lyrics and I can definitely relate:
You didn't stand by me
No, not at all.
You didn't stand by me
No way.

Then there's Cher, who's turning 73 in May, and is touring.

Just Like Jesse James by Cher
