The Imagined Village is a huge Folk production which has been put together over the last four years by Simon Emmerson. Folk music is often referred to as the people's music but is sometimes perceived to belong to some people more than others. The Imagined Village takes the English songbook and opens it wider than before, inviting everyone to take up the music as his or hers. Alongside Sheila Chandra and Benjamin Zephaniah appear Paul Weller, Billy Bragg and Martin and Eliza Carthy whilst Johnny Kalsi's Dhol drums and Shema Mukherjee's Sitar accompany Chris Wood and the Young Copper Family and Tunng take up the baton for a new generation. 11 tracks.
