I was never into folk music until I was incredibly stoned one night
and someone played this - Ewan Dadofkirsty MacColl, The Shores Of Herring. Really evocative, and the photos in this vid add to it.
(I'm still not into folk music, generally, unless it evokes times lost)

Times lost of mind bending drudgery to live in total poverty
A good tune and great pictures help though.

His influence reached to unexpected places.
