    Hello Mary. I just want to say thank you for the work you do and the inspiration you give to other artists. Being at least a few decades older than you, and probably of much of your typical fan base, I am delighted to have found your channel and to be able to tell others about it. I hear a lot of people in my age group constantly complaining that "there's no good new music out there anymore. It's all junk!". My response is that they aren't listening to the right artists, or looking in the right places. The list of musicians you have provided here is a perfect example of what I mean. Please keep the great videos and wonderful music coming. Happy New Year!

    Mary, Thank you -- I think. I only just recently discovered your work on KZread, via your collaboration with Josh Turner Guitar, whom I had only discovered a short time earlier while searching for a song by Josh Turner (Voice). All while I was struggling to limit, or even reduce, the amount of time I spend on KZread with my addiction to hearing all the old songs that take me back to other times. And now, this new list... I guess it is good to keep finding new sounds to listen to, because some day these days will become "those (were the) days". (Gene Raskin, Mary Hopkin) There just is not enough time to keep up with you all -- nor enough words to express my awe and appreciation for what you bring to the world.
