Beginning with a tribute to the revolutionary Chilean folk singer and activist Victor Jara this show also features a live appearance and interview with song collector and folk singer Sam Lee of the UK (SamLeeSong.co.uk), whose work follows in the footsteps of such luminaries as Alan Lomax, Chris Strachwitz (very much alive and kicking), and his personal mentor, Peter Kennedy, in collecting and documenting ancient folk songs from British indigenous aural traditions stretching back over a thousand years.
