SHEERJEANIUS
As we hear news of the death of Alex Campbell. anothervoice lrom the early days oi the lolk revival prepares to give two concerts: in Glasgow 10Jan and Edinburgh 9 Jan. Like Alex. who also recorded overtwo dozen albums. Jean Redpath has incorporated her art in her life. Since the days with Stuart McGregor and the genesis of the Edinburgh University Folk Song Society. she has taken Scottish folk song into the hearts and homes of millions. especially in North America which has become anotherhome.
Not with an ‘art' voice norwith a heavily accented ‘traditional‘ delivery. she brings a quite remarkable vocal skill and expression to bear on a phenomenal numberol songs. ltwould be dilticult to name a Scots song not recorded byJean.
Now a permanent fixture during the Stirling University Summer Schools in Traditional Music. she also lectures in the States and is deep into the awesome task of recording all oi Burns' 323 songs—to the melody intended by Burns himselt. So lar she has five albums down out ol twenty. the guru being the American musicologist Serge Hovey who has spent a lew decades sleuthing through libraries and
iiollowrng clues in the Poets letters and
-w journalsto establish the authentic setting lor each song. Hovey's arrangements lorthe accompanying instruments sometimes irritate by obscuring the modal nature olthe
melodies in ill-sorted narmony or counterpoint. albeitwith theirown beauty and although some ot the songs are unremarkable there are many gems and the whole venture is to be greatly applauded.
Whether unaccompanied or backed by hersimple. ellective guitarJean retains her ability to imbue each song with a vivid sense of uniqueness wrapped round with her charm and wit. She swears she was earnestly asked. alter a Boston concert. who was Lady Modygreen? The solution lay in the ballad Jean had sung — ‘They hae stayed the Earl o' Murray/And laid him on the green'! She told me once ol the time when all the singers were poor together in Greenwich Village and. in the back ol a car heading out to some party. one olthe guys said to her ‘hey Jean— listen to this; I've just written it‘. He came out with ‘Don't Think Twice It's Alright‘. How many Bob Dylan songs will be being recorded in 2187? (Jean Redpath is also leatured in Scottish Television's two alternative Burns Night programmes: Tree Oi Liberty on 23 Jan [a documentary about Redpath and Serge Hovey] and Home Thoughts From Abroad on 25 Jan).
