Zippy, I have investigated Breton folk music and Grand Derangement and
have come up pretty empty. There is a lot of Folklore Quebecois
available via Kazaa but there is almost nothing available for Breton
music. I got the Grand Derangement "Le reve du diable" which is
excellent and would like to get more.

I think what has happened over the past several months is that since
the RIAA has instituted their lawsuits against PtoP music file sharers
that most, like me, have decided not to share their music files
anymore. Consequently, it is very difficult to get any music via Kazaa
that is off the beaten path. Maybe I will have to actually go to the
record store and spend some money in order to get what I want! But I
will keep looking via Kazaa and maybe I will hit pay dirt one of these
days.

I saw them live and bought their CD in the lobby. I loaned it to a
friend and I may never get it back (I like the group, she LOVED the
group and has given me several CDs, so what the hey).

Unless a band has decided to give away its music, that is the best way
to support music that you like. Whether bluegrass or folk or other
small audience music, the most money goes to the band via on-site
sales. And they made the music...

And even with successful musicians who have beaucoup albums available
commercially, the CDs purchased at a performance have more personal
value to me. There is a Doc Watson CD that probably gets a bit more
play because it was purchased at a live performance.
